Is it normal i get nervous around my cousin & love her so much?

Me and my cousin have been talking for over a month now on a regular basis. We properly hung out last week & she's so amazing! I get pretty nervous around her because she's so adorable & I just want to hug her all the time but I don't obviously. We are both females & I hardly know her but I love her so much. She's beautiful, caring, funny & sweet :3 is it normal to feel all this for a cousin? I get so excited to see or text her :p

    It depends on what type of love you have for her.
    Are you talking about being in love like a family member like “I really adore my aunt Jane.”
    Or are you talking about a relationship love involving physical sex?
    Both ways are completely normal. I believe that people can’t always control who they are attracted too, sometimes (more like usually) it hits you like a rock when you are not expecting it. If you are talking about a sexual relationship, it’s in our DNA to be attracted to someone regardless of their relationship to you.
    Remember, the only reason we don’t marry our brothers or sisters (and 1st cousins), is to prevent inbreeding.
    When I was in high school, I was crazy about one of my cousins and I knew that she adored me, but I never could tell how deeply she felt. I never did anything with her or made my feelings known out of respect for her and family. However, I would have done most anything she asked me to do back then.

    • Tbh I don't know.. I guess I'm confused? I was instantly drawn to her the first day I saw her which was about a month ago. I do find her attractive and I get so nervous. I am rather asexual because I'm not really into the whole sex thing. I know I'm demi sexual though and I rather enjoy romantic things as gestures & such.
      All I know is that I feel a lot of love towards her. I absolutely love spending time with her & will always be there for her..
