If I may, one possibility (that's all it is, and honestly I'm probably reading too much into this) is that the reading is pointing to a choice between the mundane life and the spiritual life.

If he hides his feelings and they grow more intense, he may get a chance to transmute them into spiritual potential (Eihwaz), but in doing so he forfeits the mundane life of home and family (Othala). On the other hand, if he reveals his feelings, he suffers, but the cycle starts again (Hagalaz) perhaps with less difficulty, but perhaps with less strength (Thurisaz can mean strength) — perhaps just an easier time, so both less strength but less need for strength.

So to put it in terms from India, maybe — again, I'm probably just reading too much into this — his choice is between moksha and samsara. Does he want to go another round, or get off the wheel?

To Mole_End, if you're reading this: This is probably wrong, and even if I'm right, it's probably not literally a choice between moksha and samsara, and even if it is, bear in mind that in Hinduism, it's recommended that you live a full life before seeking moksha. Furthermore, the runes come from a tradition that's very pro-samsara, so it's not clear to me that there's a right or wrong answer here.
