Then allow me to suggest the following:Chrono said:I'm not very good on my proofs.
1)Wait until a *real* girl has a bad day.
2)Offer to help her with her math.
3)Ask her sensitive questions until she starts crying.
If you can't take it from there, proofs aren't your only problem.

I've been doing that. That's the only thing that's barely keeping me in. Of course, they've yet to ask me for help.

shall i call the wammmbulance?Chrono said:I was wondering if any of you were ever discouraged in math. I mean, you're sitting there in lecture and just feel like you're never going to get it. I haven't really had that happen, but I think it might sometime. How could you overcome that?
jk. just hang in there.

I've been doing some thinking on this and I believe you're right. I'm so screwed!
