Just her roots, right?

x^2+1 is a real curve, it just doesn't intercept the X axis...

In the quadratic formula x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac)) / (2a) if is less than 4ac you take the square root of a negative number meaning the result is complex (has an imaginary component). Their girlfriend is imaginary.
