My first kiss was with my cousin

When I was 14 I was hospitalized due to a suicide attempt from there I was transferred to a mental ward.

I got proscribed the wrong kind of proscription at the time which made me feel like a zombie I get the right kind of meds now but the system fucked up then.

I got many vistits from family members my cousin coming when she was able she was adopted by my mother so she came with her when she came to visit me.

Me and my cousin are about the same age and we were kinda of close growing up she was sad that I tried to kill myself and we spoke a lot.

To make a long story short when I got discharged she hugged me and kissed me and I mean really kiss me as a girlfriend would kiss a boyfriend.

Didn't really think much about it until now but is it weird that my first legimiate kiss was with my first cousin?

  • It's not normal. They're family.

    Don't let it happen again.

  • What's this talk of incest? She was adopted. Not blood related.

    • She is my first cousin who happened to be adopted.

      If anything it makes it weirder because she is my cousin/foster sister.

    • She is still blood her mother who is my aunt is on drugs so the system snatched her her sister and two brothers.

      They were juggled around from foster home to foster home until my mother adopted all four of them.

    • It's not incest if you are not related by blood. In my opinion.

      • We are related my mom and her mom are literal siblings so it's 100% incest.

        Sadly my aunt(her mom)is a drug addict and her dad(my uncle) also a druggie is so doped out he has the mindset of a ten year old.

      • Well, cousins DO HAVE a blood relation! Not as much as brothers/sisters but still a lot!

        • In some states it is legal to marry your cousin. What about dogs and cats? They have sex with any other of the same species irregardless of blood relation.

          • It may be legal but it's still dangerous for the future children's health.
            And I hope you are kidding comparing cats and dogs with humans! And still, for cats and dogs, the risk of genetic diseases increases with that type of breeding.

            • Pure bred dogs often have a lot of issues depending on the breed. The best dog is a mutt.
