Ive heard people say that Adam being the first human is metaphorical in the text, and means "first YHWH worshipper", not sure how widespread or accurate this view is.

Accurate, not at all.

Widespread, not much.

The general answers to this question is or that Cain married his sister (fundamentalist view) or that Adam and Cain are metaphors and didn't existed at all (mainline view).
