"It is also important to consider the emotional impact of this situation on your cousin, as well as any other family members who may be affected. It may be helpful to communicate openly and honestly with your cousin and other family members, and to seek out a mediator or therapist if necessary. The decision of whether to stay in the relationship or not is a personal one, and depends on a variety of factors. It may be helpful to take some time to reflect on your values, priorities, and goals, and to seek out the guidance of trusted friends, family members, or professionals as needed."

"The question is did he tell you he was married before? Do you know the reason why is first marriage didnt work? Forget the fact say na your cousin... If someone has been married before...you need to raise an eye brow...cos most of them may be the reason behind their failed marriage...probably they are cheat, violent, or something bad and you may have to experience same tin if you settle with them. Truly most of them wiII hide the fact that they've been married before to talk of telling you the reason behind their failed marriage. MAY GOD HELP US CHOOSE WELL."
