Guidance - 50.2.3.6 to 16 (and a bit more)

[irpa]

Hello there, I'm just started learning how to read the I Ching and well, not always I see it as clear as you! I wonder if you could help me to understand this situation so I can reflect on it and work it out properly.

I have been making some questions about this relationship I have with a guy friend of mine, where we just went a little "further" last time we met and well... I'm quite confused now.

So I asked to the I Ching what was the best approach I could take towards our relationship and received 50.2.3.6 to 16. I also asked what could I do to make our relationship successful (whatever this meant) and received 43.1.5 to 50.

I am starting to understand hexagrams with one line changing, but when I receive more, I get lost... will you help me?

Thanks a lot,
Irpa

It suggests that you don't change the way things are, you don't concern yourself with trivialities, you get stuck in and enjoy.

I also asked what could I do to make our relationship successful (whatever this meant) and received 43.1.5 to 50.

Take the situation carefully and cautiously but keep going, focus on this affair and it will work out well.

oh thank you. This helps me a lot. After reflecting sometime about this, I asked what is what I should be careful about in this situation and I received 8 unchanging. I was reading in other threads and found this response from you, Willowfox:"...can be telling you to ask again if you have the necessary qualities, a stable personality, responsible, strength of character, a person that the other can look to for help and advice; so are you a leader or a follower?". I made a new question then, what is my role in this relationship? I received 62.2.3.5 moving to 47. I can see that this reading talks about somethings that needs to be done carefully, and I understand the meaning of 47, but I don't know how to apply it to my question. Per se I can think that my role could be quite small and that would oppress me... or I could be the one opressing? Well, not sure how to understand this las reading. How you see it?
