When I read your story, I was compelled by the sincerity in your narration. I'm a very young biology student, and at 20, I have little to no life experience, especially in such complex life experiences as incest and sex. And, as a bio major and anthro minor, I feel very strongly against incest because of the genetic problems that arise (although you were very good about contraception). But when I read this, I forgot about all that, and honestly, I felt like you had a genuine romance with Daniel. There was no abuse, you both were well aware of the consequences, and you reached an emotional and physical completeness that is very difficult to find with a lover in these times. I kind of felt bad that you didn't take him up on his alternative. Do you ever wonder what it would be like if you and Daniel were together? You seem to miss him.

I think you made a difficult decision, and an extraordinary one at that. I guess I'm just a romantic who sort of saw you and your brother together, regardless of the incest.

I recently met my second cousin, whom I had heard a lot about growing up. Jack was the family golden boy, handsome, smart, successful, talented, and athletic. Jack is a year older than me, and although we both heard about each other growing up, we didn't meet until his first cousin's wedding almost two years ago. I was eighteen and he was nineteen. And there was a pretty strong sexual undertone. I know that this sort of thing tends to happen among relatives who had never met, but I kept telling myself not to feel that way about him. It got confusing because both our mothers were joking about how if we hadn't been related, we would have been perfect for each other. I tried to avoid him for the rest of my trip, but every time I wanted to leave the room, he would be right there. Nothing sexual happened, but the tension was difficult to endure.

You are lucky to have had Daniel, and if I were in your place, I would not have any regrets except of the fact that I would not be able to show my love for him in public, that it would have to be clandestine and secret. Are there any times you wish you had him to yourself? Is he completely faithful to his wife, or are there times he wants you back? I know I should say it's twisted, but it sounded a little beautiful to me.
