Consider this: There is no legal definition for a second cousin.
5th cousin (however the hell that's even defined) is only one step off from being the furthest relation to you per 6 degrees of separation. Go for it.

5th cousin means nothing, basically. I think Al Sharpton is my 5th cousin and I'm white as a ghost.

I'm from WV - 1st isn't close. j/k.
Seriously, I wouldn't date my 5th cousin just because he is my cousin. If you can get past the cousin part, it's ok.

The son of your uncle is your first cousin. The son of your uncle's son is your second cousin. I think you can follow it from there. People are generally not allowed to get married if they are first or second cousins. Anything else is permissible.

5th cousin is a distant relative.But still "blood" related, so I don't know about the dating thing.

From 3rd cousin and upwards you can safely have a relationship with.

5th means it's very far away from you. You have nothing to worry about.

No it is fine, it is far enough down the tree so you won't breed any deformities - good luck!
