Hexagram 37 Love Interest

[ariel13]

Hello all,

I would really love to hear your insights on a recent reading that I did. A little background to this question/reading:

There is a guy I am interested in...we had one date a while back, and it was kind of a bust in a way. I mean we got along fine, and I feel like there might have been an attraction, but it seemed like the guy was not in the right place for a relationship. We just chatted for a couple of hours, and then he excused himself because he had another obligation. He was warm but sort of formal. Also, perhaps he was a little flirty towards the end, but I felt a little rejected, b/c I thought maybe he was excusing himself b/c he didn't feel a connection. Although I feel like we really did not even hang out long enough to know.

We met through an online dating site, and he contacted me to begin with. We messaged back and forth for awhile, and then he disappeared for a little while. I wasn't sure what to make of it but was curious about him, so I contacted him and we eventually went out. Long story short, this was a while back, like maybe 6 or 8 months ago. I have dated a couple of people since then, and it hasn't worked out. So for some reason, I remembered him and thought to add him to my Facebook. I just thought that even if he wasn't interested in me, that I liked him and we had a lot in common so thought maybe it would be nice to be in touch. Anyway, he added me back, but never messaged me to say hello. But he keeps popping up on my chat as though maybe he's checking out my profile.

I have to admit I'm still curious about him. I asked the IChing a couple of questions. "Describe his interest in me" was one. Then, "what should I do about my attraction to him?" Then, "does he look at my profile?" I got 37 unchanging as an answer to all of these questions. It has almost become to seem comical that almost anything I ask about him comes back with 37 unchanging.

What do you guys think this means? I thought maybe it means that there was at least a feeling of comradery on his part too...though I am not sure about an attraction. I mean obviously he found me attractive or he would never have initiated the original interaction, but I guess I have been reluctant to message him b/c I'm not sure.

It seems like he should have messaged me when I first reached out to him again if he was interested. What do you guys think the Yi is trying to tell me? I don't know if this seems like a silly thing to focus on, but I did like him, and it's rare that I meet someone so interesting that I am actually attracted to. So I remain curious but too shy to reach out again...When I asked the Yi what to do it just said 37 unchanging, so I find that confusing...

Any help would be appreciated!

Best,
Jen

Anyone?

I find it a confusing answer considering the background. Maybe ask How can I progress a relationship with him - Liss

Thanks for your response, Liss.

haha I consider it confusing too. Maybe I should just let it go. It just seemed confusing but also encouraging in a weird way, so I thought I'd ask...also anytime I get a repeated hex I think there must be something really important I am supposed to get from it (even if unrelated to my question) so would love to know what that is!

 

[ariel13]

Oh and actually maybe rephrasing the question that way is a good idea....I'll try.

HAHAHA

"How can I progress a relationship with X?"

Hexagram 8 unchanging???????

 

[ariel13]

So I should just "hold together" and know that he is "of the family" and something will happen??

It's weird. This is an old thread. I just wanted to comment on it, because even though nothing ever really happened with this guy I think I know what the 37 was referring to now (3 or 4 years later). We are still Facebook friends. He still likes and comments on things I post occassionally, but he has since move to another city. I think 37 just meant that we are kindred spirits. We come from a similar background and have a lot of the same interests, namely music and really specific bands that not that many people are into. So I think it was just a comment about us being part of an extended family. Also, I think he was always and still is interested in me. But he had just come out of a divorce when we met, and obviously was also considering moving cities (bc he moved shortly after). So I think it was just bad timing. He still makes cute comments whenever I post a picture of myself. He even said I was beautiful one day. A sweet story although I never got what I thought I wanted out of the relationship.
