Math to Friendship

                People are forced to be willing and wanting to have a companion. We are born because of a social situation, therefore we are a social being ourselves and it’s all because every human is derivative. Culture is derivative, language is derivative, and pattern is just a pattern. We evolve, but there’s nothing new under the sun as the Bible says. It’s derivative.

                Too often, people do the math for their social life. As how math stands to be science, a problem solving tool, social life tends to be harder. Why would you solve something with math when you have nothing to solve?

                For math teachers, it’s not good enough to just know the answer without showing them how you get the answer. With friends, human friends, they don’t need us to tell them how we know. They’ll be grateful enough, knowing that we knew all along. Especially when they expect us to not know.

                Although, there goes the “made up” problem. Most people (like 75% of them) are either not ready to tell their friend that they know the answer to some kind of spesific situation, because they thought it would be akward somehow OR with their knowledge, they toy with your problem. Both are insanely stupid. But then, we are human. We’re born this way, flawed.

                Then the math come along. Calculating how mad will that person be if that person know they know the answer all along. Of course the math predict (blurry with subjectivity and false hope) that since that person is their friend, that person will be furious, but forgive them.

                A simple friendship has just been calculated by a fuzzy math and self-righteous (includes ego, hormone, and individual needs). This is what community is doing. By their own mind, calculating right or wrong in a relationship without really caring what the other friend is bearing.

                Saying “be a friend” is nonsense, because then the sympathy will be fake. It will come out of guilt or some other non-sincere feeling.

                It’s never be just a friendship in this world. Something could go very wrong in the middle of funny jokes and repressed feeling. Math never can show you how. Being social is not the problem to solve. Being human is also not the problem to solve. Derivative is the problem.

                If for once, human stop evolving, stop adapting, stop following patterns. If only it wasn’t our genetic disorder. Even “being creative” is a pattern.
