I suppose there are two ways to look at this: what you think about you, and what other people think about you.

It's always sad to lose the affection of another person, but what happens if we hide who we are in order to keep them happy? What happens to how we feel about ourself?

I suppose you need to figure out where your priorities lie, and what risks you are willing to take. There is a chance your cousin won't be understanding. You can't control her response, but you CAN control how you approach the situation. You can decide if you will talk about it, how you will talk about it (letter, face to face, msn), and what you want to say about it. You can also let her know that you're nervous about telling her because you love her so much and don't want to lose her, but also that you choose to tell her because you value her...and yourself.

Or you wait awhile and just give yourself some time and space to figure out what's best for you. This is a hard situation, and I wish I could offer you something more solid.
