What I had suspected for a long time was finally confirmed—my bf was having an affair with his own aunt. At first, I didn't want to believe it because they were related and I thought that maybe their closeness was just normal. But as time went by, I started to see things differently. They acted differently when they were together. He wasn't that close to his sister, but with his aunt, he was very affectionate and attentive.
As girlfriend, I was the one he couldn't take on long walks, but as his aunt, he was always with him. I didn't need anyone else to explain because my girl’s instinct told me something was wrong. And it was true—all my suspicions connected and I confirmed them.
I'm not doing this to embarrass him, but to express my resentment and remind him that what they're doing is wrong. After all, they both wanted it, so no one can point fingers at who started it. Some people just say it might be because of the “call of the flesh,” but for me, that's not a good enough reason to cut your own blood. Your blood is close, but why did you choose the wrong one?
I understand how hard his life is—they don't have parents to guide them, they're both parents-less, but that's not a good enough reason to help each other in the wrong way. He should have protected his aunt as his niece, not made him a shota. It hurts to think that I, his girlfriend, who gave him trust and love, was the one who was really hurt. All my efforts, everything I gave, it feels like he just threw them away.
I don't get how he managed to beat his aunt. Many people have noticed their strange closeness even though he thought it wasn't there. And honestly, I'm not the only one who notices it—even those close to him. But he chose to continue the relationship that he knew was wrong and embarrassing.
After all, there's probably nothing more that can be done. He's not the man I knew before—he's changed. Hopefully, before it's too late, he'll realize the gravity of his sin. They were still together at home, so it was easier for them to have a relationship. But hopefully, they'll stop before it gets worse and their reputations get ruined.
I made this confession not just to express the pain I feel, but to create awareness for others. If you think that your closeness with your relatives is normal, please don't let it lead to an illicit relationship. This is not a joke. It is shameful, it destroys the family, and above all, it is wrong before people and God.
Now, I just accept that we're over. I don't know if I can ever forgive him, but I know I have to let go. All I can wish for is that he changes, that they stop, and that this kind of story doesn't happen to anyone else.
