It sounds to me like she likes you, and when confronted with it didn't want to deal with the possiblility of rejection and made something up. I had a relationship over the internet from the ages of 14-17 (yes young and naive) and it was long distance (cross country). I ended up going to see him twice. We talked on the phone all the time and were in as normal of a relationship as it could be. Looking back I see how things were a bit crazy and that I missed out on some things, but I was in love and learned quite a lot about relationships and myself. It sounds like you like her quite a bit, and I think you should see what happens with it. It's not fair to deny yourself these feelings. The risk of things not working out it quite high, but tis better have loved and lost than not loved at all. I think the cousin things should be a non-issue unless you have some uncertainty that you're not sharing. Since you felt like shit when ya'll weren't communicating, I say it's best to go forward with the situation and let whatever may be, be.
