Same. Mom's side could be a small country. I gave up trying to find out everyone (we've never all been in the same location) and that's too many faces to remember. Plus some people cut ties to the family and move away.
Had 2 cousins get together and had a kid only to find out after, that they were cousins...
We've got Indian, black, white —I keep my partner searches to Chinese, Korean or Japanese, no chance of a hidden surprise and I don't have to ask for their family trees (middle easterns are married in, still not taking any chances there).
Yeah exactly! I cant be bothered meeting everyone and learning everything. Most of them live in south africa anyways.
oh wow.
yep same! Or well Ive never had that issue with dating but I dont think I have too many issues since I’m the first genration in Australia. I would probably only have to worry in America, India or South Africa. Though I did learn im loosely related to one of my besties.
YES! BIG YES WHY DID LIKE EVERYONE NEED TO HAVE 8 KIDS

Hoho, nice, friends with distant family is good.
Damn good question!!
I TRIED. Both of my parents tried for ONE SIDE.
And the thing is, the family tree don't even go that UP. We just don't know some people for reasons so like at one point someone had a LOTTA babies.
dude normal families got like straight lines all neatly organized. Dude my ethnic family got zig-zags, squiggly lines, lines going across.
I don't know HOW I ain't insane in the brain yet
Das too many people for my antisocial self to handle.
Kudos, soldier. o7
