new relationship 17 no changing lines

[barbaloot]

Hi, I met a guy on an internet dating site who I seem to have a lot in common with and I'm going to meet up with him next weekend. I asked the i ching how things will go and I got hex 17 with no changing line. Does this mean it will be slow going and continue to be slow going? That was my interpretation (though I am pretty green). What do you think?

In my opinion, this is a pretty good hexagram to get in terms of relationship possibilities, The very first paragraph of the commentary says, "...An older man defers to a young girl and shows her consideration. By this he moves her to follow him." It may or may not be slow going, and I wouldn't recommend you let it go too fast, but it looks good. I'm not sure where you get the slow going idea. Everything takes a certain amount of time though.

Anyway, good luck,
Gene

Hi there,
I got 17 unchanging in relation to a new relationship a while ago, you might find it useful (and if you see my other posts, things are developing slowly, and going pretty well):

The very first paragraph of the commentary says, "...An older man defers to a young girl and shows her consideration. By this he moves her to follow him."

Are you thinking of line 28.2 which is not a part of hex 17?

Hex 17 suggests that you should go and try and capture his attention.
