I personally believe it is possible to genuinely love more than one person at a time - we are this way with friends and family, so why not with intimate partners?
I will come back and properly assess the hexagram and lines, sharing my perspective and insight on them to see if they fit for you... But aside from that, I have four years experience with a poly-amorous man and can provide insight into this kind of relationship setting. Perhaps via online clarity DM if you're interested.
For now I have personal matters to attend to.
Love and light.

Here’s the backup story...
Couldn't describe better than this.The modern 21st century polyamorist can often be a very selfish and vain person.
(Who kids themself that they are enlightened)
(The Teenagers I knew were mostly polyamorous, I think it's a developmental stage)
Because they get:
1- the safety of a commitment at home
2- the permission to play/sex with anyone they wish to.
3-insulation from a true deep committed relationship.
4-are inconsiderate of others, as in this thread, where she says what she wants,
And then her wishes are completely disregarded by him. Selfish selfish selfish boy.
5-the vast majority of sexual relations have the potential to create babies,
Babies need devoted parents, not inconsiderate parents who value their own sexual gratification above the
needs of others.
Babies aside: She shared her inner truth 61, and to this man: it was worthless to him.
He just kept pushing his agenda.
In fact the powerful guy/alpha male took the biggest responsibility. The exact opposite of the modern open-relationshippers I've met.The basis for polyamory in ancient times was sensible and financial as in:
One guy has a bunch of crop and cows,
and consequently multiple female member's survival was helped by the arrangement.
That's right.many males I know who got into making music did it for the sole purpose of picking up chicks. <---Notice that last 's'
Right, as in 'why buy the cow, when the milk is given freely? 'In short, they want all benefits of a relationship without any responsibility.
Waste of Space. It's as simple as that. It's not complicated. He's holding you in the capacity he wants you and offering you absolutely nothing at all....except the drummer and the space I suppose but is it worth being totally emotionally screwed over for those things? I don't think so because he can really mess your head up and you could be living with the fall out for years. He will cost you dearly if you let this go on.Right now I feel I’m getting mixed signals from him all the time. He talks to me every day, independently of our band group chat, asks me to tell him when I get home, sends me music and pics of his day, etc. In these days I came to realize that I like him so much now I wouldn’t mind to try the open relationship thing, at least for a summer fling and to have some fun. But whenever I try to ask him out so I can tell him this, he backs off, changes subjects and so on, sort of avoiding a date situation with me.
Hmm what to do in this situation? Nearing?I asked two questions, what to do in this situation? 19.0. Should I persevere in this approach because a great new thing is coming?
I’ve read this cast points to maintaining low expectations and being patient otherwise there’s the misfortune of the eight month.
But unchanging could it mean the situation will remain the same, ie purely plathonic?
Yes it is unrequited love, he isn't showing you love. 59.2 again look beyond this with wisdom, go to what you know to be truly reliable truly there for you. Is he there for you? Would he came straight to you if you were sick or depressed? He can't even make a date, he's no use to you.How to overcome this heartbreak? And received 59.2 to 20, which I read as let things disperse, don’t initiate personal contact other than band-related, don’t try to hold onto it. There’s probably something I’m not clearly seeing that requires me to back off so I can get a better perspective (20). Could it mean stop answering his personal messages too? I really want to keep playing together, besides my obvious feelings for him.
Your insights are much appreciated,
We are all learning,as someone who lives in a traditional country, I'd say the classic relationship/family doesn't work any better than the emerging modern forms.
I had false ideas about love & romance myself.
Sorry, Moss, but if there's one expression I hate when people are discussing open relationships, it's that one. Is that what you think a marriage or committed relationship is? Buying a cow so you have regular access to her milk?Right, as in 'why buy the cow, when the milk is given freely? '
I (have always) found the "cow" saying very offensive and wanted to edit my last night post to say it, but Moss Elk reacted to my post when I was typing so I let it go. The "bull" example is a good equivalent for it.Sorry, Moss, but if there's one expression I hate when people are discussing open relationships, it's that one. Is that what you think a marriage or committed relationship is? Buying a cow so you have regular access to her milk?
Yuck.
Although I know one poly woman who came up with her own version as a revenge: Why buy the bull when all I want is a little sausage?
You can love yourself with or without someone hence for them to bring something additional to you if you love them being loved back would seem desirable. I don't know how the above statement applies to the situation. Are you saying it's okay if he doesn't love her or show much interest or commitment because she can love herself? The point of being in a relationship surely is not just we go on loving ourselves we can do that by ourselves, the point is being loved back.Does no one else here not tell themselves that it doesn't matter if someone else loves you or not? It matters more if you truly love yourself.
Sorry, Moss, but if there's one expression I hate..
I should add that in my own four year relationship with a poly-amorous man - I have cast 19 unchanging and 59.2 more than a few times over the years. Specifically this part of the above quote resonates with my experience of the lines in the past to present:19UC is a bit mysterious to me tbh. I think it can mean to allow things to happen naturally; personally I don’t see it as you distancing yourself. 59.2 > 20 is about going to what supports you, which makes sense in this situation. If the support is unbalanced (you heavily centering him for support) you might get tipped over since he has another source of support as well in his partner. The question of him avoiding your conversation… I wonder if you just wrote him what you are thinking and feeling and simply put it out there, then see what happens? That way you can both know if you’re mutually in the same place before you meet up again in that way? Since it’s 19UC I guess it could also mean not to rush that either. I don’t really see it being about walking away though, personally. Maybe more just getting closer to see what’s really there for you.
It is being discussed here.This whole forum is full of people asking questions about difficult love experiences but you’ll never seen anyone hopping in to say “that’s because you’re monogamous!” It’s just responded to like any other situation, without that bias.
