first 37 unchanging.
second 37.1.3.5.6 to 2.

i was sad, and now i am not anymore.

i asked the iching twice about andrew, first what I should avoid doing in order to keep him.

this guy once used to be my teacher, and i had a powerful crash on him until he told me he was homosexual. (the crash lasted longer, of course). a beautiful, beautiful frienship blossomed between the two of us: we have been travelling together the whole world, dried up each other's tears, confessed the utmost secrets, worries, desires, hopes. We are very similar, by nature and by nurture, but still so different, so much complementing each other.

still sometimes when I am alone (we now live apart, in two different countries) I feel I can lose him. Not that I rationally believe it; just that it happens to most, I guess, to be afraid to lose this wonderful feeling of being understood, cherished, loved by somebody who's no further intention than loving you as a friend.

First answer: 37 unchanging. How come, I think: Am I too maternal? too insistent?
I needed to know more, so I asked Yi what is the way to make our friendship blossom:
curious, once more 37 (this time with many changing lines, to 2).The response I received was, in the end, the very core of every important relationship: let it flow, don't suffer because there's no need to, know that sometimes it's normal to argue, know in your heart that what you have is going to stay the way it is, in the good and the bad.

Seen this, I think the first answer was very much a statement, not an answer: family is family. You love it, you hate it, but it's your family. And Andrew is my family.

I am a novice to the book of changes, would appreciate to have your insights (even if they are not as optimistic as mine).

Blessings,

Lili

The I Ching speaks to a reader individually. It spoke to you, you felt the answer. I think you heard it right, it was a lovely response.
