Are We Related ? Posted: 10-04-03 05:39am
Dear daddysgirl,
you are actually related to your partner
by blood, if your grandmothers are step
sisters then they either have the same
father or the same mother. Having
relations with your relatives is not
advisable due to possible birth defects
but you would need to talk to your doctor
to find out what risks there will be to
your children if you decide to have any,
because i'm not sure how closely related
you need to be before birth defects are a
risk.
Regards,

Well are they step sisters or half
sisters. Step sisters=her dad had a baby
by another girl then had a baby by her
mom. Half sisters= same dad/mom different
dad/mom. So I say you are related but not
by blood.

If your grandmothers are step-sisters,
then you are not blood related. The only
way you would have a change of being blood
related is if they were half-sisters. But
you had said they were step. So theres
nothing to worry about. Even though
somewhere along the lines you are related
(not blood tho), that shouldnt stop what
you and you boyfriend have together. You
can't help who you fall for.

Well I think your grandmothers are related
by marriage only. Not blood. So you two
are related but not by blood. How does
everyone else take it? Because he is
still somewhat family to you...

I dont think you two are related step
sisters are when one's parent married the
others parent. So you two are not related
by blood.

Ok
same mom different dad= half sibling
same dad different mom- half sibling
different mom different dad- step
sibling
same mom same dad- full blood..
Now that we got that settled... Sorry I
read someone say that they r related by
blood.. They arent they r related by
marriage... I have 3 step siblings one
full blood brother and one half sibling so
I know the difference... I dont think
there is anything wrong or anything to be
ashamed of with your partners family being
tied into yours by marriage..

Nope, Not Related Posted: 05-10-04 03:07am
Step sisters just means that the father
had a kid with someone else and the mother
had a kid with someone else and then they
got married. So, no you are not related.
This might get confused with half
sisters, because half sisters are people
who have the same father, but not the same
mother, or the same mother and not the
same father. So, no worries, you're
fine! :d
