3rd Cousins, Parents Don't Accept Us

Okay so me and my 3rd cousin are in love and we’ve been dating for over 2 months now. Our parents don’t like it at all and I want to know if there’s a way to get them to let us see each other without turning our backs to them. Oh her mom is better then fine with it though. Any advice would be appreciated. Insults and rude comments would be, well rude, and unwelcome

Answer #1

The only way to get your parents to “accept” this is by being happy. Regardless of anything else, your parents want you to be happy. They are just hoping that you can find that happiness outside of your family.

While this isn’t the ideal situation there are worse things. As for turning your backs on them…try to remember that your parents have loved you from the day you were born…and they always will. A relationship doesn’t always last…no matter how much you want it to, no matter how much in love you are, no matter how much in common you have, and no matter how long you are together. You really don’t want to shut out the people that love you the most, if it doesn’t last you will need them and if you shut them out, they won’t be there for you.
