having cousin troubles 13/f
I have 2 cousins that are 11. Their names are Anthony and Jacob. We don't really get along, so lately I've been trying to leave them alone at family events. They still end up bothering me. It's worse when my friends are over. At Christmas dinner last year, Anthony made an extremely rude and racist comment to my best friend (she's black). A few hours ago, I was over at Jacob's house for his little sister's birthday thing. I was wearing a shirt that said "I belong" on the front and Anthony said what? to the devil? when he saw it. If it were any other person, I would assume it's just a joke, but he really doesn't like me no matter how I try to be the better person and be nice. I don't want to get him in trouble because my uncle lectures him forever when he does, but it's been really hard for me to sit there and have him insult me to my face. Those were only examples of what he says to me. There's a lot more that I won't get into. I'm just wondering what ya'll think would be the best thing to do about him. I don't want to end losing my temper on him and end up hurting him.

You need to make your cousin aware of what he is
doing to you i don't think he realizes his actions
and how it's affecting you tell him that him being mean to you isn't nice and you'd like it if he stopped in the nicest way possible if you allow him to continue without you saying anything
he will and won't be aware of what he is doing you
could try avoiding him like you've been doing
at family events keep your distance away from him
the further away you are from him you'll have a better chance of him not saying mean things to you(: ]
hes a young boy boys are a lot more immature than girls your 2yrs older than him 2.hel grow out of it eventually ]
