If you asked a yes-or-no question

Yes

Pulling in two directions at once. You or the other person may want different things, and nobody is steering. Stop, agree on the direction, then go.

Keywords: lack of control, lack of direction, aggression, obstacles

If you’re single

Put yourself out there with intention. A clear goal and a bit of courage will move things fast.

If you’re in a relationship

Work as a team toward something shared: a move, a trip, a goal. Steer together.

After a breakup

Pick a direction for your own life and move. Motion helps more than going over it again.

How they feel about you

They are determined about you and feel ready to make a move.
