Hello,


I started dating a wonderful man about 6 months ago. We hit it off right away and we have a great relationship. He is truly the first guy in a long time that I feel comfortable with (I can just be me) and the attraction is strong.


However, I'm

Hi, I totally know how you feel, several years ago I dated this man for a while and introduced him to my adult daughter.

Have you never heard the one about how when couples have been together a long time, they begin to look alike? Just think of this as a head start. ;)

My very first boyfriend (back in highschool) and I looked a lot alike and people took us for siblings until they saw us holding hands. No one assumed anything incestuous. They simply re-aligned their ideas.

My brother and I _really_ look like each other, and yet when we are in public places together, folks will often assume that we are married rather than siblings. (And I am talking about two people who have the same shape and color of eyes, the same type of chin, and the same hands as well as similar hair and skin tones.) In other words, even a really close family resemblance does not lead people to assume an incestuous bond.

Relax and enjoy your new relationship.
