My mom's brother was married and had two kids and then divorced and the kids went to live with his ex-wife. Well, his daughter (my cousin) has a cousin and I was wondering if she was my cousin. (my cousin's cousin that lives with my x-aunt).
CONFUSING!!!!!
Also, if my uncle's old wife still my aunt? or just call her by her name cuzi see her a lot. Also, when my uncle gets married to his girlfriend i am used 2 calling her by her first name, should i switch to saying aunt _____ or just call her her name???

yes you are cousins
yes your uncles ex wife is your aunt once removed
if your uncles marries again his new wife will be you aunt also..
what you call her would be up to the person if she wants to be called aunt___ and you feel fine with this you could do this.
if she perfers you continue to call her by name than thats fine.

OMG this is confusing. First of all it depends on how your cousin's cousin is related say if you share a grandparent or something close like that then yeah and to the second question if you are on good terms and it sounds like you are if you see her frequently I would still call her aunt as long as thats comfortable for the both of you its cool as for the last question again it all just depends on comfort level I mean youre used to her first name and calling her aunt might feel strange to both of you u could always talk to your mom or even your uncles girlfriend if your comfortable doing but i would definately talk to your mom and ask her advice if your still having trouble

No, your cousin's cousin, who is not related by blood to you, is not your cousin.
(BTW, a correction for what others say - your first cousins would be people who share the same grandparents as you, second cousins are the people in your family who have the same great-grandparents as you., but not the same grandparents!) Check it on any genealogy web site/ google it.
If you have been caling your uncles's ex-wife "Aunt ----", I think you can continue to do so - a change in how to address her may hurt her feelings and your relationship with her, which I am presuming is good. Best is to ask her.
Similarly, ask your uncle's girl friend how she would like to be addressed once they are married - most people are OK to be called by their first name.

My, my, my....I would hope that you would all your Auntie by the name you always have. But hey, ask her what she prefers...and tell her what YOU prefer. As for the Uncle's soon to be wife, call her what you learned calling her, do not switch to Auntie. And no, your cousin's cousin is not really your cousin, but if you all are close family, then lump that person in also. The more the merrier.

no your cousin's cousin is not your cousin but you should call your uncle's new wife aunt whatever just to show her some respect. because that is being respectful of ppl

A cousin's cousin is just that.
Take your cue from others...if they call you niece you call them aunt.

first no I don't beleive that would truly be your cousin. Second no not technically however continue using the title AUNT if it's confortable. Third again using what ever title is conmfortable
