Trying to get unstuck

Lately I have been feeling like it is time to deal with something that I had put aside a long time ago but never really had closure on. I felt like I needed to separate myself and work on myself before I could understand it and my feelings concerning the other person involved.

So in order to help me understand I asked the I Ching "Why do I still want to be with this person? 54 unchanging.
-I was very attached to this person and it seems I still am even though 54 represents an unequal and negative relationship.

Then I asked, "Based on this 54 I received, please advise me on the way to move forward concerning this person (moving forward as in getting past this or "unstuck" in this area of my life). The answer was 14.2.5 to 13.
-This sounds like in speaking humbly and sincerely with this person there will come closure and peace to this situation after all this time and distance so that this will no longer be a nagging part of my life experience. That, or it is saying the wisdom learned from this experience will benefit me in my current and future connections with those around me?

Out of indulgence and in the desire to know if I was a more positive than negative experience in this person's life I asked, "In what way does this person remember me?" 58.2 to 17.
-Seems to me that I offered only "inferior pleasures" (even though I felt like I was offering much more than that and it didn't feel inferior to me) and he has no regrets about resisting them in the end and through his experiences with me, has learned to trust and follow his inner voice and higher principles. Either that or he sees me as someone doing this. Either way it sounds like I shouldn't contact him because it seems one of us isn't good for the other. So maybe it isn't a good idea to have a conversation even if just to bring harmony and closure to the past.

I must say that 58 confuses me. For a hexagram which is Joy over Joy it seems to talk a lot about keeping others from defining or reducing your joy and very little about being joyful or sharing it. Maybe I am confusing the idea of Joyous with Hex 16, Enthusiasm.

I would really appreciate others' ideas on these hexagrams and lines. There is always something I am missing.
Thanks. :)
