play along with it but also tell her that cousins can't get married to one another. but it is cool to have alil cousin think she has her own prince charming. she admires you and maybe one day she will remember what she saw in you for that one day her real prince will come and you can be there to support her in it. :-)

Play along for awhile, sometimes they just want to have a prince charming and after you start playing along she will get bored to tears with it.
Or you could sit her down and tell her that you are family and that she needs to find a prince charming out of the family circle. Tell her in like a story use the prince charming and the whole senerio so she doesn't get confused and mad.

hi there, that is so funny. When i was young i had a crush on an uncle myself. there's not a whole lot you can do at this point ,shes so young. If your mean to here or if she thinks you don't like her, you will hurt her feelings, as you probably already know. All you can do is TRY to explain how you are only her uncle, and that when she grows up and is old enough to get married you will be an OLD MAN. Any way good luck and be strong. she WILL someday understand.

Don't be silly. Little girls have crushes on the older men in their lives - it's normal and healthy and cute. Be her friend and confidant, let her know that she is special to you and that you think she is wonderful. If you are going to be one of the role models that she bases any future relationships on, make sure that you are the right kind of 'fantasy man', so that when the time comes for her to choose a partner she will look for someone who treats her like gold the way you did.

amandla says it the best.
So yes, be the best roll model you can be, let her see that you are human you make mistakes, and that you learn from them. Behave as the kind of man you want her to bring into the family when she is old enough, and chances are, she will find him. Be gentle with her tender heart, remind her that you have the same grand parents and that it isn't possible or right for you to be married.(keep in mind she shouldn't know what it really is to be married)

Well she is just 7. She will probably grow out of it and find people her own age, but if you are worried talk to her. Explain to her why it wouldn't work. Make sure to be patient with her, and break it to her easily.Talk to her parents. Her parents can help.

Why even risk breaking her heart? She's not stalking you; she's only 7 for pete's sake. Just let her grow out of it - she'll probably be over it in 6 months.

Tell her that you love that she is your cousin, but you will never love her as a girlfriend or wife, because that would be wrong. Talk to her parents about this so they can enforce that issue at home. Tell her parents that she makes you feel uncomfortable by her actions. Good luck !

Don't worry about it! Just play along with it. Of course she'll grow out of it and it'll probably become a memory you will both smile and laugh about ten years down the road.

Sorry been there done that. the easiest way is to introduce to a girlfriend and tell her that you are serious about this other girl. She wont like it very much but she will soon forgive and forget.
