this forum is to help people so if you don't have anything smart or nice to say, let it be...

by the way it is not illegal. Marrying a relative closer than that (sister etc) is but it is perfectly legal to marry a cousin)
if you're worried about genetic problems i'd go talk to a doctor about that. if there's a high risk of having problems you can always adopt kids...

surymed yes if you marry your cousin and have babies then you are certainly increasing the risk of genetic diseases. You see we all have a certain number of detrimental deathly diseases genes they don't come out because they are recesive so when you expose two recesive genes then those diseases can show up and that's why you shouldn't reproduce within your close relatives. But if your love is so sound and strong and provided it is legal then marry her and if you want to take your chances then have the baby and be willing to accept if anything happens or choose to adopt. The ball is in your court.
