Am I related to this person?
Yes, there is a chance, well there is always a chance you are related to anyone, me, your teacher, the president... Haha. With lots of similarities like that it is even more likely you are related, and if the something else extremely rare is caused by genetic factors then that makes it even more likely! If you want to find out try to see if her father had a brother or cousin, etc., who was given up for adoption. If they know there was then perhaps your dad and her dad will want to have DNA tests and look into the adoption records. Even if her dad knows nothing of it doesn't mean it can't be true, if you want to investigate it you and your friend could have DNA tests and if they come up as matches for possible cousins, you might want to persuade her dad & yours to investigate it further through adoption records or DNA tests. Obviously DNA tests are never going to give you 100% certainty what you will need is to investigate the adoption records to be certain because even if it's a DNA match there is a tiny chance the DNA just happens to match. Also obviously you could just look a like — if her dad only by chance looks like yours his daughter is bound to look somewhat like you because her and your dad much have some of the same genetic makeup to look similar, and since siblings and relatives look similar obviously a lot of their rest of your friends family will look similar. If I were you I would probably imply to my dad that she seems like a relation, and just stay really close friends with her, I would love to have a friend like that because I would get on so well with her! I'm sorry that its not possible to give you a definite answer, but I hope this helps! =) Xx
How am i related to this person if at all?
You are cousin's cousin, a term that is fun to say, isn't real, and comes up here every week. If your aunt and her husband have a daughter, "Elizabeth" she would be first cousin to you on her mother's side, and the girl in question is first cousin to "Elizabeth" too, but on Elizabeth's father's side.

Your mother = your mother Her mother = your grandmother Her father = your great grenafather, or your 1st great grandfather His father = your 2nd great grandfather and so on, until the mists of time grow thick and you have what we call a dead end. You have thousands of 50th great grandfathers and grandmothers, who all lived well over a thousand years ago; proving exactly who they were is the hard part. They are all your direct ancestors. Your ancestors who are not direct are your 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc great aunts and uncles, plus first cousins "N" times removed, as in "I had five ancestors who fought for the south and eight who fought for the north in the Civil War".
What relation am I to this person ?
On your father's side, her parent is your first cousin, so she is your first cousin once removed. On your mother's side, her parent and your mother are first cousins, so you two are second cousins. Lost of people are two relations at once.
How exactly am i related to this person?
No relation at all....blood or otherwise. The easiest description is to say that she is your friend. You two might find it interesting to say that she is your great-uncle's niece, but she is of no relation to you by blood; and is not related to you by marriage either because your great-uncle is related to you ONLY by marriage and when a person marries into your family, you do NOT inherit all their other relatives as your own. Genealogy relationships are fixed and cannot be severed. The fact that he is your uncle only by marriage also means that if he and your aunt divorced, he would no longer be your uncle. Therefore, this is not a genealogical relationship, so any of his relatives or ancestors are NOT yours too.

How am I related (if at all) to this person?
The short version: is it possible for me to share a common blood relative with someone without the two of us being blood relatives ourselves? The long version: I'll work backwards. My mother and uncle (William) are half-siblings through their mother, my grandmother. Therefore, I am blood related to William (obviously). My uncle's father (my grandmother's ex-husband, a different man from my mother's father) has a sister who had a granddaughter (Shannon). Am I related to Shannon? If so, what is her relation to me? I have come to the conclusion that William is Shannon's mother's cousin, thus making William Shannon's 2nd cousin. However, I feel that the blood relation stops there, as I am not a direct descendant of William. I feel that the more determining relation is how Shannon is related to my grandmother, which she's not. Shannon and I first met three years ago (we are both in our twenties). Even if there is no relation between us, would it be a faux pas for us to pursue a romantic relationship? I have asked Shannon directly if we're related and she laughed it off. Even my own grandmother has said that we're not related. Thanks!

Let me describe some more details about this since I obviously did not do a very good job lol, but forgive me, I am horrible with genealogy. We know we are cousins of some sort but I'm trying to narrow it all down. My Father and her Mother are cousins, my grandmother had a brother....who is "her" uncle and he was my great-uncle. But I am not sure as to which uncle of her's he was. I don't have all the details as you can well see and most of these people are dead now so I can't ask them. Just throw out all the most likely possibilities for me and I'll try to go from there and sort them out. Oh, and I know for a fact we are blood related.
Thanks for the A2A.You're not really worried about being “a bad person” are you? The vast majority of people do not want open relationships. Did you think that Quora was going to respond that they are all bad people?So I think that what you're really asking for is support in saying ‘no’ to an open relationship. Which you’ve gotten! I will give you some more — it's totally fine to not want to have open relationships.You do still have the issue that your boyfriend does want one. I would argue that this means that the two of you are incompatible. It's true that some people do make it work, but the response that you describe having to the actual experience of it doesn't make me optimistic.Again, the vast majority of people out there say that they want monogamy. I’d encourage you to accept that this particular guy is part of a small minority of people that you've discovered that you are not compatible with, and start investing time in relationships with people that want the same thing that you do.
