Hey guys,

Tonight, I asked the Iching "What is happening between X and I? "

And the Iching gave me 33 with the first line changing to 13.

My thoughts are consumed by these relationship and I have gone into retirement since saturday. So it is very correct. We haven't spoken in several days. Things are very dark in the relationship. It is an addictive love. Intoxicating. It is not a mutual relationship. Power struggles. Unhealthy. She tends to abuse the power. In fact, recently, there is no love or intimacy. I tend to attract BPDer's because I am a fix/rescuer type and I am easy prey. She pushes me away. However, i tend to see through this and see her pain which is rooted in childhood. Anyway, i know this is the right thing to do..go into retirement... in fact it is the only thing to do. Yet, It does not feel right to say that I am abandoning this person. It also doesn't feel right to say I am quitting this person cold turkey. Or running away. I feel my ego is getting in the way. . . I am also very aware where that my own wounded ego needs come from childhood and what I did not get from my parents. And this person triggers this in me. And I repeat the patterns trying to gain the love/approval...

Anyway, please tell me what you think.

Rsrose, 33 line 1 is the 'shoot the messenger' line. In other words you need to back away because she perceives you to be negative, even tho you may think you are being helpful. You are not abandoning her, you are giving her space. 13 indicates your fellowship will survive.

Retreat isn't an end to itself, it is self preservation. The entire natural world survives by retreating.

Mongol warfare methods are taught in every military academy in the world. They retreated to tire the enemy from chasing, then would turn back and defeat them. Must be careful when chasing a tiger; but even a tiger knows when to retreat.
