I can't make up my mind whether it's a fat slob with nothing better to do or a skinny uni undergraduate looking for some fun, fun, fun  ::)

Come on, this is Rootschat not Facebook. When did we start dishing out insults like that?  How many threads do we get on TOTB bemoaning the loss of 'manners' and how they 'cost nothing'? This is supposed to be a friendly forum  ???

Well said, Barbara...

People have different ways of looking at situations and relating to other people. Some have an easy time of it but for some it's puzzling and painful. Thank your lucky stars if you can negotiate personal & social interactions with relative ease. 
Too easy to dismiss awkwardness as trolling, which is a different thing altogether.

The OP has everyone's thoughts now, so maybe the thread should be locked?

If the OP would like help with their family history research then I am sure they will plenty if they post their questions on the appropriate board.

Good luck with your research Inteval.

It is genuine and I'm telling you that it is. I am doing my research and there has been research done by previous ancestors. But the point is that I want him to look at me as a cousin. He looks at me as his buddy/kinda cousin.

Hi Intevel,

There is a well known saying: "you can choose your friends, but you can't choose your relatives."

Relatives are people, just like non-relatives
    - Some we like better than others,
    - some we get on with better than others

but... we can't force them to think like we do - that's life !

regards,
Bob
