I often wonder how could citizen of this more than a billion people manage to fall in love with their own brother or sister.
This is incestuous and illegal to say the least.

I fully agree with Mr.Barman. The younger generation do not bother about any values and wish to break away with all the age-old established traditions.
It is not love - you cannot fall in love when you know that it is not possible. It is lust. We are living in society. I advice you to forget the episode and get married asap.

Even though in prohibited degree, the marriage is permissible if there is a custom to the contrary in your community.

Marriage is not void// it is voidable..
Advised not to marry in prohibitory relationship, as children out of such marriages can have defects.. It's against the Law as well as Religion..

The entire details of the prohibited relationship has already been provided and now you find out among which category you fall.

Your query has been very properly addressed by experts, but you do not want to understand, instead, want to fall in line with your lust in the guise of love. Your father's maternal aunt's son who is a cousin brother of your father, is almost your father by relationship, can you marry your father?
