[quote=Anonymous]My third cousin was like a sister to me as kids. Her family moved to a suburb in elementary school. I went to a commuter inner city college, and I paid my own way. She flunked out of a college that was away from home, and she enrolled at the same college as I. I was happy there. I was dating the editor of the school newspaper after he pursued me. We were friends for a year first. He was my first serious boyfriend. His family was very well off and lived in a huge mansion near the college. This guy and his family were very good to me. We spent almost everyday together at school, holding hands, just a great relationship.

In college, my cousin went behind my back and invited my boyfriend and the school newspaper photographer to take and publish photographs of her and her friend in a beauty contest, where they had to pay to enter by getting sponsors. I was not even angry with her, or jealous in the slightest. From my perspective, it caused no problems between me and my boyfriend.

That was 25 years ago! And ex boyfriend and I are friends on Facebook. He is married to a lovely lady and they have a young son.

My cousin revealed to me that in her mind, she had the opportunity to actually marry my ex boyfriend in college, if it were not for me. We were all raised Catholic at the time, and I was devout, went to church, virgin, wanted to have sex after marriage. My cousin was not. She told me that my ex boyfriend did not really love me as much as I thought he did. He did not cheat on me, though. And as for sex, we did plenty, and we were very sexual and intimate with each other. We travelled together, made out like crazy every time we were together.

To my cousin, because this ex boyfriend was such a great catch back then, she thinks I was moving slowly with him, with no intention to marry him, which isn't true, and that she could have had him if not for me!

She is now not speaking to me. She is unhappily married with a boyfriend for two years and a teenage daughter.
