The mathematics of finding love
I wonder what might be the formula for finding love, and finding true love?
I know one variable is how often you think about it, and that according to lore, you find true love when you least expect it, so the less you think or fantasize about finding true love, the more likely it could happen.
Another variable I can think of is how often you engage in activities seeking out love, like dating services and such.
And that's all I can think of.
I ask because this is, as far as I know, a scientific forum, so I figured this question might be suitable for here.
What do you guys think?

Re: The mathematics of finding love
I don't know if there is anything scientific about it, and maybe I myself need to think less about it. If there was a formula, or some magic potion, I would have tried it and either made a wrong calculation or probably been poisoned by now.

Re: The mathematics of finding love
Being a "man of science", my love matters were always strictly separated from scientific considerations . Although I met my wife in a math lecture at university, a long time ago, we never tried to find a mathematical formula for all that followed...
While I certainly could enumerate a lot more important variables that seem crucial for a happy partnership, I suppose NOONE will know the mathematical formula that connects these many variables

Mathematical proof that girls are evil ...
First we state that girls require time and money.
(I'm sure no-one would argue with that )
[tex]Girls = Time \times Money[/tex]
and as we all know, "Time is money":
[tex]Time = Money[/tex],
so substituting Money for Time in the first equation gives:
[tex]Girls = Money \times Money = (Money)^2[/tex]
... and because "Money is the root of all evil":
[tex]Money = \sqrt{Evil}[/tex]
so,
[tex]Girls = (\sqrt{Evil})^2 = \sqrt{Evil} \times \sqrt{Evil}[/tex]
Therefore: [tex]Girls == Evil[/tex]
Irrefutable mathematical proof that girls are evil! Where's my Nobel prize??

Admittedly a cute derivation, yet how about keeping track of the dimensions (units) involved in your formula??

Hey, good luck with keeping track of all the dimensions of females Fridger.

Huh! Word games ahead
First of all, the task (formula) must include BOTH males and females! Otherwise it can't work (can it?)
Keeping track of proper dimensions in a bisexual environment is all but simple ... how to connect the dimensions of "time", "money", "evil", "girls", "boys" ....much fun!

Re: The mathematics of finding love
hmm...girls = evil? Well, not all of us...to speak up here for the small female population, there are plenty of 'evil' men out there. Lol, dont get me started, in fact, maybe I better just be quiet
Maybe its not a mathematical question...but a question of chemistry...and a lil caring, trust, loyalty...oops, forgot i was going to be quiet.

Is love an actraction?
So G = M(girl) x M(boy)/distance^2
From acceleration > Velocity > Space > Time (all parametrers involved in money)
Evil = Hell = depth = space
Never at rest.

Re: The mathematics of finding love
Here is a math formula to describe men. Happy tummy (good food) + happy bed (good sex) = loyal and loving man for life.
My mother taught me that one.

Methinks that you and Reiko are much smarter than most women...

No man knows more about women than I do, and I know nothing.
