Yours is a very common situation, and it sounds like the ball is in her court. You say she KNOWS how you feel; the rest is up to her. She needs to decide if she likes you enough to dump her boyfriend. If she is pulling away from you after a week or two, my guess is that she does not reciprocate your feelings, though, so brace yourself. I think it is sometimes very hard for relationships to evolve this way.
PS - Royston, your situation is NOT the same as karot's. Stay away from your cousin. That is just gross.
