She dated my cousin?

[Navaman]

So it's been 12 years since that last seen her talk to this girl I came home on leave since im in the military ran into her social media prior to me coming out we arrange a meeting we hung out and the chemistry was just there I felt an instant connection with her. Since then we have been Inseparable. I really like her and I would like to pursue a relationship with her only thing is 12 years ago she was 15 I was 14 she was dating my cousin and I'm not sure how my family would feel about that? I know that it was 12 years ago I can get over it and see past that since we were only kids. Advice??

who cares what anyone else thinks??  you cannot live your life worrying what others will think of you.
are you both happy with each other???
that is truly the only thing that matters.

You're worried about a YOUNG relationship (14/15) 12 years ago?  It should be a NON-ISSUE for everyone involved.  If anyone makes a fuss, then they're ridiculous, IMO.  Quit worrying about it, and certainly don't even bring it up to anyone.

They were kids - She's an Adult now -  two VERY different scenarios.  I can see no reason He or Family would have objection.

I vote:  go forth and be happy

well it's complicated because my cousins actually in prison and they have not talked since the last time we talked Which was 12 years as well. but me and my cousin had a huge fallout so we don't even talk I don't even look at him as family. And Yes they were intimate a long time ago

Hi, that is a long time ago and i dont think dating her would cause any big uproar with the family but what about if the 2 of you run into your cousin, that maybe a little sticky at first esp if they were physically intmate.
