First cousins are about as closely blood related to you as your siblings. Beyond first cousins (the children of your aunts and uncles) it's typically legal to marry so if you like a 2nd cousin or on down the line, that's fine.
Liking your first cousin is okay, but it's not legal to marry someone that closely related (so you probably wouldn't want to date). I dated a cousin many years ago when I was right out of high school. Our grandfathers were half brothers.
"In 26 out of 50 states in the United States, and most other countries, first cousins can marry. Second cousins, third cousins, first cousins once removed, and any other cousins except first cousins can marry in all 50 states and every country in the world. The Roman Catholic Church, which has had much more experience with people than the Unites States (It has more people and has been around longer) lets first cousins marry. So, most of the world has no objections."

Your cousin may be hot (I know how that is, I have a hot cousin too :)) but I think it is wrong to like him. I mean, you share a set of the same grandparents, and your parents were siblings. I would definitely try to stop your attraction to him- try to make your relationship toward him more like it would be with a brother. It's against the law to marry him (first cousins, right??), so it's best to stop thinking about him that way and start looking at other guys. Best of luck babe :)

o.k...First of all,you asked if it was wrong if you"LIKE" "LIKED" your own cousin! what is wrong w/people? and where&how did getting married fall into play? the way things get all twisted up by others sucks! No,it is not wrong to like anyone or to even think there hot,attractive,an ***,or what ever,those are just feelings and emotions,we all have them.It's what you do w/those feelings or how you coduct yourself around that person that can turn all of what and how you feel for your cousin wrong.Good luck and always try to remember,not everything you feel emotionally is wrong,its yours,its how you handle it or how exspress it.Be safe out there.L8

If hes blood related, I would say thats kind of wrong, and not something you should act on. Its perfectly ok for you to hook up with a cousin, or other family member who isnt blood related, but not cool other wise.

depends upon the relationship. Are you 1st cousins, 2nd, etc. I once dated a girl only to find out that she and I were something like 7th cousins. Family Trees spread out..

first cousin? yes, but in early centuries, king and queens let there children marry cousins so that thier royal blood will stay for a long time. there are alot hot guys out there, i think you can get one better than your cousin. goodluck!

Dont confuse the feelings of finding your cousin attractive and actually liking him. You should definitly get it out of your head, it could lead to a lot of problems. Hopefully its just a little crush and one day you will laugh at yourself for ever feeling this way.

It is wrong.
Depends. I am related to "cousins" that are cousins only because thier father (who is a brother to my father) is not thier real father. In this case, I don't think it's incest.
But if he's blood related, yeah.

I don't think it's wrong. Nefertiti ( a use to be queen of Egypt) married her cousin.
