The mathematics of love, Hannah Fry (Cristina Peralta)

The mathematic Hannah Fly explains a fascinating journey around the loving patterns of people and as we can manage them to find our right partner.
Hannah Fly says that everyone that wants a partner had been doing after a hard mathematic work. So she has done a work called: ‘Why I don’t have girlfriend?’.

In her work she talks about a boy, Peter Backus, who tries to evaluate his chances to find a loving partner.
Of all of the available women in the UK, all Peter’s looking for is somebody who lives near him. somebody in the same age range, somebody with a university degree, somebody he’s likely to get on well with, somebody attractive and somebody who’s likely to find him attractive.
And comes up with an estimate of 26 womens in the UK.

But love doesn’t really work like that. Human emotions aren’t so much ordered and easy. So she presents two examples of a scale of be attractive or not in a website called OKCUPID. If you take someone like Portia de Rossi, everybody agrees that she’s a beautiful woman, but she’s not a super model. And you compare Portia de Rossi with someone like Sarah Jessica Parker, some people think that she is fabulous and other people seems to think that she looks like a horse. So if you ask people how attractive are Portia de Rossi and Sarah Jessica Parker, and the score is about 1 and 5 points, the avarage will be similar.

So, if someone thinks that you are attractive, you’re actually better of you think.

Couples have to don’t let them go but if you don’t want to be compromised to have a succesfull relationship, you must think about maths!
