Ask QC: Should I Sleep With My Hot Nephew?

Dear QueerClick,

I recently met a hot guy around my age. His name is Jimmy. He’s a swimmer, a web geek, he’s funny, good looking, and he’s into me. We met at a gay bar one week when I was in town for my family reunion. We instantly hit it off because we both have dark senses of humor and are pretty sexual. We traded numbers and I promised to call him later in the week.

A few days later, I went to my family reunion and saw Jimmy there. “I went up to him and was like, “Oh no! Are you dating one of my cousins?” And he said no. After a short conversation, I realized he was the son of my older, estranged sister!

My sister and I have never really been close. She’s much older than I—she’s 45, I’m 25—and she lives in a different state. Her son Jimmy is about my age (23) and I wasn’t really around when he was born. We both had a good laugh about it, but when I jokingly asked if he still wanted to have dinner, he said, “Sure, why not?”

We had dinner and it went really well. I don’t know if it’s because we’re related or not, but we both connected like we’ve known each other our entire lives. We were drunk before he took off and we ended up kissing a bit before I stopped him and said, “Whoa. Isn’t this illegal? He said, I don’t know.” And then I asked, “Isn’t this against the bible?” And he said, “All homosexuality is.”

I told him I don’t know how I feel about dating a relative, especially my own sister’s kid! I’m pretty sure my family would disown us if they found out. We don’t have reunions very often and I have my own private life working in a small town where it’s hard to meet guys. He said he’d come and visit me, but I’m pretty sure if he does, we’ll end up doing something. He’s the sort of guy I’d like to end up with.

I don’t really have a problem with incest as long as it’s consensual, but can anyone give us any advice? I kinda feel like it is wrong, against the law or not against God’s law. And all that kinda makes it feel hot too. Is it against the law? Are we freaks? Would I be doing something wrong if we pursued a relationship? I wouldn’t normally consider it. He reads this blog too, so any advice will go to the both of us. Thanks!

Wow. They aren’t exactly the the Peters Twins, but the incestual forbidden love thing does both like a bad idea and incredibly hot. But what do you think? Can these two relatives have a genuine love connection. If so, what should they worry about? If not, why not? After all, it’s not every day that you meet a great guy, even if he is your nephew.
