Would you have loved Math if you could apply it to things that mattered to you?

I say "HELL YEAH".  (Admittedly, perhaps a tad cynical, though)

At first I'm not sure whether it's Math or Common Sense who's the hero here.  But I'm inclined to go with Math since, debatably,  the understanding of Mathematical reasoning cultivates and shapes our Common Sense.

Consider then that Math, simplistically states that X * Y = XY, yes?   I solve the equation by linking it to, e.g. the following scenario:

SET X = (                 SET "Girl likes Boy long time."    = + 1 
                               SET "Boy doesn't call Girl, ever"  = - 1
             )

SET Y = (
                 SET "Big Girl wants Big Boy know everything about her " =  + 2
                 SET "Big Boy doesn't bother to find out What she Big Girl loves; what she                                   hates;What warms her heart; What's her favourite flower/wine/colour",                            etc...etc ...infinitum" = - 2 ...
              )

Therefore IF X * Y = XY
                           XY = (+1 -1) * (+2 -2)
                           XY = (0) * (0)
                           XY = 0
                           XY = Boy IS JUST NOT that into Girl ...


Who can argue with the math ?
