Why do we have to be related?!

[Eddie Brock]

Ok, this has happened to most at some point or another. You meet an attractive person at a party, wedding, funeral, etc...only to find out that you're related.

Doesn't it suck?

Today, my cousin and her husband were hosting their first party in their brand new house. Both sides of the family came over...it was about 40 people. Sure enough, wasn't there an attractive girl from my cousin-in-law's side of the family?

Also, at the same cousin's wedding, I caught the garter and a girl about my age caught the bouqet (spelling?). So now I had to put the garter up her leg...and we were related, I think. *shudder*

So fess up, has this happened to you?

Isn't it standard practice to go to family reunions to look for women?

The icky thought is, I could very well be related to my fiancee and not know it.

Now THAT would be a twist that would put M. Night Shymalan to shame.

If you're not related by blood or immediate family in-laws, then whats the problem?

But I don't live in the Dirty South...here in the North, it's frowned upon.

I saw a Jerry Springer episode once called 'I'm in love with my sister' or somethin like that. Bunch of people defending being in a relationship with sisters/cousins and such. Wanting to have kids.
