And also Twilight didn't meet him for the first time in that flashback. I wouldn't, especially being a kid, bump into a teenager and then jump around him and hug him. Even if he did smile at me. Did your parents ever teach you about strangers? I'm sure they did, but would you do that? And Twilight wasn't really the princess of friendship back then. She was a little filly.

About Cadance and Blueblood - Cadance is Celestia and Luna's adopted niece, while Blueblood is actually a distant nephew several times removed. They're the ones who consider each other cousins.

PS: It's not obvious if [almost] everyone thinks they are related.
