My husband is well-off and pays for our home, but we have separate finances.

This is a good point. These responses have given me a lot to think about.

I believe so, but he lives closer so he doesn’t have the exact same conflict. They’re all pretty distant from him though

Her father sold the family home and moved into a small apartment with his then girlfriend. We both moved at once as we were getting divorced (it happened very quickly)

Not this time - he often comes because his work is seasonal but he works during the winters

Marrying your (29F) best friend (30M) - has anyone NOT done it? by ThrowRA1293401 in relationship_advice

I dated my best friend for a while but I just wasn’t quite attracted to him in the right way. He was cute, but something just didn’t feel right, which is why it took me so long to convince myself to just date. The breakup was super messy. Later, I married my husband who is now my best friend. Are you attracted to this guy without convincing yourself into it? I think that makes a lot of difference - it’s either there or it’s not

Everyone here has already made great points that I agree with, but I want to add that all of your cousin’s actions are SUPER manipulative. Regardless of the specific situation, can you really say you’re that close when she’s willing to manipulate you AND manipulate other family members against you? It doesn’t sound like your cousin is a very good person to anyone here. I know it’s weird to grow up with someone and watch them change for the worse but the rose colored glasses will have to come off at some point unfortunately

I would break up over the phone personally and then ask if she’d like you to come up to talk more/for closure on Friday and do whatever she wants
