A Little Too Close to Home
So, this qualifies as the bizarre story of the week.It appears that a South African couple had to call off their wedding because they found out they were brother and sister - who had been separated at birth. Even though they had dated for five years, they didn't make the discovery until the wedding when their families met for the first time.I bet this awkward gathering went something like this, "I'd like you to meet my uncle Bernie.""What a coincidence, I have an uncle Bernie too."The complicating factor is that they are expecting a baby boy, which, I guess, will end up being their nephew.So, the lesson learned is this. When you're dating, it might be wise to ask to see a photo from the last family reunion.
