What’s the prognosis of the relationship 29.2.5 to 2

[Liolik]

I met a guy who I think is all i like in man. I started dating again a year ago (after 6 years break) and I’m so “out of practice” in every aspect of dating lol. I am quite nervous about it. We’ve been having great time, great convo but Im not sure he’s into it as much as I am. So I asked 3 questions.
1. What’s the prognosis for this relationship 29.2.5 to 2
2. Does he want to be with me 58uc
3. How should I behave towards him to keep this relationship 61.3.4.5 to 14

My understanding is that 1. Relationship is not in a good place, let him take a lead and then it will progress. 2 he’s interested to have conversation going. But is he interested romantically?? 3. He maybe seeing someone else? I should be honest and speak my mind?, try to get yo know him better and build friendship first?

I’d really appreciate suggestions here. Does it even look like it’s worth investing emotionally into this?

Hello,
I find that your castings ask you not to force (29-2), to follow your instincts and your feelings to be in agreement with reality (61-14: indeed, there may be another person...).
With 58 it's an openness to communication, he likes you but it looks like a friendship here.
The prognosis? Hold back your emotional horses

Hi, I liked Matali's interpretation.
It looks like he's having a good time with you. You should behave openly and create room for honest conversation. Then, you will understand his circumstances.
Good luck,
E.

Thank you guys! And, horses are in a stable )
When I went through the beginners guide, it is written that the relating hexagram is about me and my role in the situation. Reading others’ interpretations on this forum and some other sites, many also suggest that relating hex is the outcome.
so is it up for me to decide how I see it? It’s bit confusing.

Re hex 29 original text.. why do I see it as a positive hex. And I did marinate for a while in it.. Yes pits are not so great but then there’s truth, confidence, success and honor. and then I read interpretation here and everywhere else and it is danger hex.

‘Repeating chasms.
There is truth and confidence.
Holding your heart fast creates success.
Movement brings honour.'

Having this as an example (and for any other readings), should only the moving lines be taking into account?

Think of 29 as describing riding a surf board - great fun if you can keep your balance! For a relationship I would see lines 2 and 5 as very encouraging. I see them as saying you are line2, very uncertain but willing to give it a try, and he is line 5, more confident and like you willing to take the risk, see where this goes. Hexagram 2 here seems to emphasize not having a specific idea of what this should or shouldn't be but a willingness to see what develops.

Does he want to be with you? Think of 58 as ideas being tossed back and forth. I see this a saying he enjoys being with you, tossing ideas back and forth, getting to know you.

How you should behave towards him to keep this relationship?
61. Inner Truth - 14. Possession in Great Measure.
I think being yourself is the world's greatest aphrodisiac so just be yourself and he will be yours!!!

Thank you! This is an Aha! Moment with hex 29. This is exactly what me and him talked about. We both like to just go with the flow and see where it takes us. That’s why this hex didn’t seem “dangerous” to me. And spot on with me being more uncertain. This is actually is related to my reservation to more intimacy (only because it’s been reeeaaally a while..)

re 61-14, I am a direct person, speak my mind and open about my feelings and thoughts. We had this convo and I said maybe I should filter what I say, his reply was “no, please you always be yourself”. How interesting…

I have an update. The relationship went absolutely nowhere. As I wasn’t proactive as suggested by the lines, the other party also was least interested to pursue the relationship. Took me few weeks to get rid of heart feelings. Out of sight-out of mind does work.

Thanks so much for the update. Lately it seems as if I’m seeing a lot of examples where hex 2 as the relating hex seems to say “the energy plays itself out and the situation comes to rest.”
