I love the concept of it. Essentially every math problem is a puzzle. I love puzzles so I love math. Not to mention being a strategic type of person. I use math to help me often. Among other reasons.

I like it because it stimulates my brain and I actually don't find it that hard to understand. I got A's and B's in math all through high school. The only thing I don't like about math is that some math assignments can be tedious.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me you little undergrad? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my country in the university of LaTeXing algebraic topologists, and I’ve been involved in numerous homeomorphisms on orientable manifolds, and I have over 300 confirmed isomorphisms. I am trained in continuous deformations and I’m the top disconnected space in the entire arXiv database. You are nothing to me but just another metrizable space. I will compactify you the fuck out with addition of points the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking technical babble. You think you can get away with giving an arbitrary covering space to me over the Internet? Think again, newbie. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of mathematicians past their prime and your counterexamples are being disproved in special cases right now so you better prepare for the corrections, maggot. The corrections that wipe out the pathetic little thing you call your mathematical career. You’re very short exact sequence, kiddo. I can find your isomorphism types anywhere, anytime, and I can write you down with a finite presentation in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with a single stick of chalk. Not only am I extensively trained in illegible handwriting, but I have access to the entire coloured chalk collection of the United States Stationery Enthusiasts Club and I will use it to its full extent to make you inhale dust, you little "healthy" undergrad. If only you could have known what universal properties your little “clever” conjecture was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have thought of less trivial counterexamples. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re going to get a 2.0 GPA, you goddamn idiot. I will draw Xs all over you and your exam, and you will drown in it. You’ve fucking failed, kiddo.

Honestly, it is not that I dislike them. I respect Math as a Subject and recognize the value behind them. Can't say that I am that fond of them either though. I am already knowledgeable when it comes to their application on everyday life. Moving on to advanced stuff is surely interesting as well but it seems quite trivial for me right now. It is a matter of preference really. I am more of a Theoretical Person myself. There is also the matter of how they have been taught throughout my years at School. When the Educational System is shit and there is a complete lack of Organization, there won't be much attention to be paid to the Subjects either. That applies for each one of them. One more reason might be the fact that Math tend to get associated with many bad memories from my earlier School years. Unfortunate events which happened during Class. Hence why all my sudden stressing, impatience and frustration comes out when I have to deal with them. Instead of focusing on solving a problem, I am actually drifting away and relieve those years which results on getting lost on an Existential Crisis for a little while. So, there you have it, I suppose. I have nothing against Math. Just some pretty bad timing with them. I don't really find them difficult to understand. Even some Tutors of mine used to say that I have an affinity for them and could become an Expert if I actually bothered to spend more time on them. In the end, it mostly has to do with whether I have enough Motivation or not as it seems !!!!

I have mixed feelings on math. See, math is a bit like a minivan, or a station wagon, it's not exactly fun or exciting, but you can't deny the huge utility benefit from driving one.
Even on my ranch, I still use math all the time to do finances, find out how much of what kinds of feed we need, how much we spend on gas or ammunition, but I would still rather spend my day doing just about anything else

Honestly, I adore it. I get annoyed when some people say like, "Ugh, so boring and I'm fustrated. I can't understand maths, so I hate it!" Seriously, how stupid is that! Anyway, I love maths. It is not only my favourite subject, but favourite period also. Maths teachers are very nice, and it is honestly a very smart and interisting subject. Should get more love!

Basic jist it's the reason I dropped out of college (I'm going back this fall though). I took the same class 5 fucking times and I tried everything from a tutor to just trying to learn with my friend. When I finally got a C in the class the college said that I needed at least a B to pass and I was like wtf that's ridiculous.
Like math legit ruined all of my college plans. I would have had a degree by now if it weren't for math. I joke about it but math legitimately makes me fuming mad.

Honestly, I see the reason for math being of high importance in school because a lot of sciences cant function without math (since sciences are really just applied mathematics), but honestly... People that arent interested in Science or Math classes are kinda... doing something that wont help them at all

Also, I was researching the school system out of boredom, and the thing is America's school system (at least the highschool one) runs based off of the factory method that was highly outdated. It pushes forward factory behavior and forces everyone to take the same classes with very variation for passion and all.

So a lot of people coming from highschool fail to really have an idea of where they want to go because they weren't really exposed to seeking out a passion independent interest since working outside of a factory is praised, but eveyrthing we are raised doing guides us to being a good factory worker and all

I like math because I love plugging numbers into formulas and seeing the outcome. Once I understand what I'm doing I'm on a roll, and the end result is very satisfying lol.

Another reason I usually enjoy math classes is because they're very predictable. There's usually no group assignments, speaking in front of the class, etc. You just take notes from your teacher and then do the assignment, day after day. So relaxing.

Honestly I do enjoy doing the math problems. Sure, trying to solve the problems can get frustrating at times (especially geometry). But once I finally understand and solve the problem, it makes me became really satisfying in doing math.
