we are speaking of someone who seems to be bipolar. First day he treats you well, then he doesn't give a damn about your safety and about your wellbeing, then again he jokes like a stupid person...after that he ignores you.
How should I behave from now on with that weirdo.
Maybe you should immediately start having his babies. I mean, surely there is a shortage in this world of bi-polar, inconsiderate, reckless, stupid, weirdo jerks.

I hate him but i feel attracted (at least physically!)
Mine or theirs? At least I added my interpretation... their comments are like ''you can't ask that''.Rosada, while I mostly really do agree with M.E. and Trojina, that's a really creative interpretation of that reading, hexagram 55, and how the lines might work together. I would never have thought of that. Can't say I understand it completely, if "understanding" means "could apply it to future readings" or "put it into my own words" as teachers in school always wanted, but still - :bows:
I didn't want to make long poems about that. I could even write poetry but nobody should care that much because it would only be a small description of reality.When I wrote "you say HE'S the one acting bipolar" I meant that your description of your own feelings (hating yet wanting to be friends) sounded as weird as anything you said he was doing and thus I questioned if he were the "bipolar" one here.
I missed this post. Thank you Rosada, now it's clearer!! Basically, it says that even if I make a move he will keep being that way, and there won't be any real friendship - besides the fk buddies' chance. Even if we were bed buddies there wouldn't necessarily be a friendship because we would not see eachother anymore.Okay, that was rather blunt.
Looking at the lines -
55. is about something being at it's peak so I see 55.5 being the great physical attraction.
55.6 then is the realization that after the sex there's nothing else happening here, in fact, people prefer to not even see each other.
and that's what this
13. Friendship
is all about.
So for now assume you are f**k buddies and don't assume there is anything more to it.
Perhaps if you can get your mind around this and be okay with it you'll at least stop feeling you've been deceived and won't feel so hateful, and who knows, perhaps this new attitude, this willingness to recognize the reality, will open up possibilities for real friendship.
I meant Rosada's. I said this:Mine or theirs?
Rosada, while I mostly...
Dear gals, I didn't ask for a judging a comment.
And what is ''you say he's the one acting bipolar'' mean?'' supposed to mean? That I can't define myself attracted by a person who makes me angry? lol
Neither i think I ching is here to judge... so calm down before insulting me.
''Bipolar'' was just a ''kind'' way to call him, no diagnoses were meant to do, ofc.
The reason of this question is that I'm quite attracted though, but I want to face him, I dont want to ignore him just because he is weird or rude. I can't really ignore him because he looked for me and he is somehow always available in those social gatherings...
could you understand that?
Now...if it is not bad to ask...could be the i ching right with my opinion where I should behave the most happiest person in the world?
and not having babies with him? lol
Trojina calm down please XD
i think there is nothing bad to try to have friendships instead of being angry or insult them all along... otherwise, the i ching would have never sent a 13, but maybe a 4 hex. (if it sounded like an unreasonable question)
=) i'm more for the peace than for the war even if the guy is a bit too much rude.
How should I behave from now on with that weirdo, in order to reconcile?
that was the meaning. Among friends we often say that xDIn the U.S., some young people bastardize the word bipolar as a catch-all for Unstable. I usually hear it from people 25 y/o and younger.
It's a lingo/culture thing.
Yes, what I meant wasn't properly a friendship but how to improve our ''relationship''.The question phrasing is problematic. "How to behave" is a great part of it. "For my own sake" is good too. The next part is very confusing: and to have a good friendship.
The issues are that a) you're assuming that a good friendship would be best for your sake, b) you ask about friendship when it's clear that this is an erotic situation, and c) that you already know that a good friendship with such a horrible character is not possible.
13 is about similar people hanging out together. No matter how bright you are (55.5) the guy cannot see it (55.6). Best to search for people similar to yourself. OR, be bright one moment (55.5) and an arrogant recluse the next moment (55.6), so as to become more similar to this psychopathic nasty weirdo.
In any case, please try to phrase your questions more carefully.
(I'd love the idea my friends and I tease him back. I think it's fun to tease someone who normally you would just punch in the face.:bows
I edited it so everyone is happy now! But I can't deny a good frendship could also arise from all the continous hate and fighting. Who knows, perhaps he keeps acting selfish and proud because no girl actually ever contradicted him.See, now if you're saying this is partly a "teasing" thing among you, your friends, and him, that is different, at least a little bit.
This is a problem with how we do this, just generally on the internet. It's a very awkward, disjointed way of trying to have a conversation.
I agree with what Trojina said in her post #16. All any of us have to go on when we talk to each other is what the person literally writes. What you told us in your original post sounded pretty darn terrible.
If there is more to it, we can't possibly know. And to some degree you can't possibly tell us, without writing 57 pages. (This is not encouragement to write 57 pages. uch
But I think what we can do, or at least try - and this applies to every one of us, not just you - is to look over our posts from an outsider's point of view, and think about whether it's a good, balanced, accurate summary.

as we said, one of the possible things would be the bed buddies theory... which is already a different view from the ''call the police'' one :O)--- crossed posts ---
I want to add that you're right, we could have paid more attention to the reading itself, or tried to. Although I still don't have any ideas of my own about it.
But Trojina also has a good point about that - the situation you described sounded so awful that it makes interpreting the reading extra hard. Yi might be coming from some angle we'd never think of. Or as she said maybe we just don't want to get mixed up in it - we have a right not to read for someone.
Look at it this way - what if someone came on this forum and asked for help with a reading about robbing a house or murdering someone. ACK. If the reading was clearly saying "do not," we'd probably be happy to say so. But if the reading wasn't clear, or even seemed to be encouraging, I doubt many of us would go out on a limb and say, "Well Yi says it's okay, so go ahead!!" So our options would be: (a) ignore the thread, (b) answer with personal opinion, (c) say something like, "Um. I have no idea what Yi's saying, but this isn't something I'm willing to talk about."
We also wouldn't want to say Yi's encouraging crime (even if it seemed that way, superficially) because we could be WRONG. The I Ching isn't an exact science. It's not hard to be wrong.
So, same with yours. It's really hard to say to someone. "Yes! Go right ahead with this person who's terrible to you!" So we mostly didn't.
Rosada and Diamanda came up with ideas that weren't saying that, to which - :bows:
