Do I give this guy up? I dont think its right to sacrifice my happiness...

Hello. I need to run something by you. A few months ago, I ran into a guy I knew but havent seen in a few years. When we knew each other before there was never a question of a romance but now there is. we have been seeing each other and things are going very well. I know this has a good chance to become serious. The problem is he was engaged to a family member years ago when I knew him. Even though this family member has now moved out of state and is engaged to someone whom she is madly in love with, I can see where she might have a problem with this. Do I give this guy up? I dont think its right to sacrifice my happiness, but I dont want my cousin to be upset when she learns we are together.

Dear Cher
Your cousin doesn't have a right to be angry. That doesn't mean she won't be, but if she's moved on, and she's about to marry someone else, then that's where her life is now and she can't tell you not to see this guy. She does, however, have the right to say she doesn't want to see him at her wedding. Tell your cousin the situation so she hears it from you and not gossip which has a strange way of adding information that doesn't belong, and let her react - then you'll know what to do after that.
