I'm 20 years old and my cousin's husband is in his late 30's and I was told by my mother that she caught him staring at my chest, and at the time I was wearing a low cut shirt and I was wearing a sports bra. I have always been somewhat close to my cousin and in turn made me close to her husband and we used to go on vacations together and go out places to eat and what not. I kind of had a little crush on him for a while but had always ignored it now I'm completely over it because he is like a cousin to me now.
