A cousin I have never met, who has the same last name as I do, friended me on facebook. I recognized his name, but he had no idea we were cousins. He lives in Jersey. very weird.
he's not really even a distant cousin. His father is my father's first cousin on his father's side. Apparently his father separated from the family way back when. My dad had told me that we had another male cousin - the only male with the last name - but we had never met him. he apparently had no idea that there were more of us. my father was really amused, and was going to go call his uncle. I was like dad, he's not going to have any idea what facebook is, and you are just going to confuse him. lol.
cousins appear in wierd places, when I was about 15 I found out I am very likely related to my then best friend, whom I'd known for the better part of the 15 years (he's about 6 months younger than I am, and yes, we've known each other that long). I also met a cousin who lived in albany by accident at a friend's bat mitzvah, I told my mom about the girl I met, the response i got back was she's your cousin, we don't talk to her family.
wow, that's odd. related to your best friend. wow. although my dad said that this kid's father cut himself off from the family a while back - so he had no idea that we were his cousins (my sister and I). Though my dad had mentioned that we had a cousin with his last name, but we'd never met or anything.
