Default I can't figure out what would go well with this chord!

I was fiddling around on my nylon stringed guitar just the other day, and I happened to come across this hidden gem all the way don on the 13th and 14th fret:

e|--x--
B|--14--
G|--13--
D|--14--
A|--13--
E|---x--

This sounded very nice to me and I decided to pluck it in a certain pattern that went like this:

(hit each string separately) 5th string , 4th, 3rd, 4th, 2nd, then 3rd.

I really liked how this was starting to sound! I was off to write a slow, gentle, chord progression...but there was one problem.
I couldn't, for the life of me, find another chord that complimented the first one! I was really disappointed, and had nobody I could ask for help. I decided to join this forum to see what like-minded guitar players like me could offer to hopefully solve my dilemma.

I appreciate any help you can give me. thank you for your time

It's not related to acoustic guitar. Here we just discuss acoustic guitars, not anything related on how to play them.

Moved from general. Discussions about chord forms and voicings belong in Play - thanks!

Bm7 flat add5 ... an octave up, might play around with standard progressions with a Bm7 +1 octave, but not near a guitar to check this.

Hmm, another thread you started on the exact same thing. Anyway, so many chords.

m7f5 a nice chord in any context, say a
Cm6 - D7/C - Bm7-5 - E7

One (there are many) of my favorites chords is a "Joan Baez" Emadd9 with an iv-iii-V7.

Expand horizons. Get busy writing a song or tune, or learning a few.
