Help /lounge, I love my sister

Over the past year I've been trying to lie to myself, to think on something else, even got laid and tried to fall in love with other girls, anything but admitting what I, deep down inside, already knew.

I love my sister. Not in the way most brothers love their sisters, but in the way a man loves a woman. Not because of some silly fetish either; when I say love, I mean real, "I'll go to the end of the world for you" love.

My sister is only one year younger than me, making her 20, and currently doesn't have a boyfriend. She's pretty, at least to my eyes, but this is not fueling this. It's her personality. I like no other girl this much. We always had a lot of chemistry,  it's as if we were engineered to be together. Only we happened to share our parents. I'm sure if we had been born in different families, we would be the happiest couple in the world right now.

Lately, I realized I could not give up on this, but I'm kind of scared. I know this is fucked up. But I don't know what to do. I've been avoiding her for a couple of weeks, and this is causing her suffering, which in turn breaks my heart. I don't know if I should confess my love and face the consequences of experiencing a kind of love that's considered unacceptable in our society, even from her, or just let it pass and die inside.

Help me /lounge, what should I do? I think she may be feeling something similar for me becuase we are very close and she considers me attractive, but I don't know to what extent this may only be wishful thinking on my part. Knowing her, I'm sure she won't be angry at me if I tell her how I feel, but I don't know for sure if she'll feel the same about me. I'm positive our parents and everybody else in our family and community will oppose such love, but if she loves me, I'm willing to face all of them or move to some other country to start a new life with her. But I wouldn't want to put pressure on her or make her feel uneasy, so while I think I should confess, I'm not 100% sure and I don't know to what extent what I think is distorted by my strong affection for her.

Again, thanks all for your support.

>>52, I can't believe it myself, but it's happening. She's my biological sister (unfortunately! I know our relationship will never be socially approved). And discretely was a typo ("et" => "te").


These past two days have been great as well. I couldn't go out with her yesterday because she was off with her friends, but I accompanied her on a quick errand, and we went out today. We now hold hands when we're out of our neighbourhood and kiss each other in the mouth randomly (no tongue yet though).

Surprisingly, she has avoided all the "touchy subjects" like what will our parents say, even when I brought them myself, and we keep it hidden at home by unspoken agreement. We've lightly discussed that this is on society's wrong list, but decided that neither of us care as long as we're happy; we always were a bit anti-social. However, I asked her if she's happy with the whole thing and if she's sure about it, because I love her and I don't want to do something she doesn't like, nor I want to get hurt if she's not taking it as seriously as I am, and she said she was serious and she's enjoying it, and that she considers herself in a relationship now. So everything is going fine, and I'm having the winter break of my life along with my love.
