Wow, thanks for the very thoughtful reply. There are lots of things you touched on there which ring true to me, so I will do as you suggest and consult along those lines and see where I get to/meditate on how important the project is to me, whether it's worth continuing with given how hard I find him to work with etc...39, an obstacle, relating hex 8, a union.
39.3 reads to me as "turn to yourself" you are in a position to choose, to take leadership.
Fan Yao, 8.3 is about holding together with incompatible people out of false intimacy. You and your work partner are simply incompatible.
It seems like Yi might just be giving a picture of your situation.
I received this line when having problems working with an incompatible person also, whom however, down the road, we had to work together anyways out of necessity.
But I needed a breakdown of the current structure to "return" to my own center and stop focusing so much on our differences, find myself and approach in a more centered way, not trying to force compatibility but simply finish what we are doing together. Its not much fun but with an end in sight, and they have improved their end once I accepted their approach is not going to change, and relaxed my expectations.
When I browse the forums I see other questions receiving this line about relationships on hold, perspective shifts, etc.
8 has a lot to do with timing, state of mind so I'd say if you can pace the project, adjust your mindset it might turn out. But I would not expect it to be easy and fun.
Or it could be perhaps there is someone else the project could turn out with, you need only seek union with one who furthers it?
In your situation I might ask Yi for a picture of my feelings/relationship to the project itself. If it is very important to you, could be worth working with someone difficult.
Or you could ask what he contributes, what you contribute? Is it really so important and dear to his heart?
sometimes the incompatibilities come from lopsided investment/willingness/commitment.
