Weird Family Ties…

Posted on May 23, 2007

Ever wondered what it was like if your family married within the family? It’s be SO messed up…you wouldn’t even know whose who and how to call them anymore…especially if you come from Chinese families where you gotta call them by their respected titles.

Everything would TOTALLY be out of whack x_x!! For example, let’s say I’m married to A but we get divorced. A then marries another girl, B. B then has a divorced father and marries me. After that, I have a child who marries A’s little brother and so on and so forth. Damn…it would be so troublesome just calling any of them…

In other words, A is my ex-husband as well as my step-son-in-law. B would be my step-daughter who is married to my ex-husband/step-son-in-law. My current husband is my ex-husband/step-son-in-law’s father and my child would be my ex-husband/step-son-in-law’s in-law-aunt, also aunt to my step-daughter. Later, my child’s husband would be my son-in-law as well as my ex-husband/step-son-in-law’s brother also becoming my ex-husband/step-son-in-law’s uncle. And when THEY have kids, the kids would be my grandchildren as well as my ex-husband/step-son-in-law’s nephew and nieces!!

Oh what a headache @_@!!! Why am I talking about this? Why, if this happened in my real family setting, it’s gonna be a massive disaster!! Cause all in all, I have 10 uncles and aunties on my father’s side and 4 uncles and aunties on my mom’s. And each of them have at least 3 kids, the most being 6. And on my dad’s side, some of these kids have already grown up and have a family of their own, this meaning that they have kids as well. So all in all, if even there was a slight confusion to the family tree. The whole foundation would come crumbling down and would have to be remade x_x!!!!

I’m only talking about this now because I saw something about it on YouTube. Damn funny and sad at the same time. The poor guy is his OWN grandpa!!

Now you see!! This is why marrying someone already in the family tree would make life CONFUSING!!! Even if they’re not related by blood, it’s is highly recommended when you feel something or anything resembling hot, passionate love towards them, you should start running towards the opposite direction!! Think of the CHILDREN!!! The horror of trying to decide how to put a title to them as well as doing their projects on their family trees in school!!! The poor kids!!
