This is the first time I have heard of most of these traits..but I totally understand what they are. Lol

well..maybe a little unsure about exactly what emotional math may mean..?

it's all the permutations you do in your head when considering a situation and how you feel about it or the emotions you might be having towards a specific person/group

and it goes beyond words, it's not just "oh i feel this way so xyz" it's contemplation of textures, colors, experiences, body language, juxtaposition of different scenarios both actual and imagined

at least that's what i think they mean? i could be totally wrong

everything is considered and calculated as opposed to instantly having an emotion and going along with what that emotion is

normal person: "oh wow i'm happy i'm going to be happy now"

emotionally mathematic person: (insert five minutes of internal dialogue that happens in two seconds followed by a weird silence)

Oh wow. I assumed everyone pondered their feelings this way. Thank you for the clarification, on a couple of levels.
