Tonight I was on MSN when someone when a .co.uk MSN address messaged me. He was swearing at me and such. I noticed the .co.uk and kind of recognized the email address.
I asked him if his name was David. It was. I asked him if he lived in Wales. He did.
I told him he was my cousin. He replied by swearing at me more and saying I was no cousin of us his and he blocked me.
I emailed him, telling him to hear me out and listing off my immediate family who had come from Europe.
(Last winter, my Nana had given a cousin of mine in Wales my MSN address and he never talked to me).
So he unblocked me and said, "Oh my God.. are you serious???" and he asked if I knew certain people like Cora. "Yes," I said, "She's my great aunt". And he said, "She's my Nana!"
So I prooved him wrong! He IS my cousin! Our Nana's are sisters, our Mom's are cousins. It was SO weird!!
We ended up talking a whole lot, and he went on webcam and microphone and we told our families, who called other relatives.
It's the first relative I've talked to from Europe, except for a few older relatives who have come over to Canada to visit (only 4 of them). He's only 4 months older than me.
Wow. What a weird day! But all in all, he seems really cool! I'm looking forward to getting to know him more! :)
