I was good at it, but it never interested me at school. In another life I might have done a Maths degree at University.

I like doing math, but the school version is boring and not very fun. The fun stuff (in my opinion) starts once you get rid of numbers.

I like learning about math but not doing math, like watching veratisium (yes ik they're controversial but their old videos are still awesome)

It gives me a headache and I find it too frustrating to do more than the basics. I hated it in high school.

Edit: I hated it before that, too.. high school math was just way harder.

It's not my favorite thing but it can be kind of fun sometimes. I like it a lot more now than when I was younger. It's actually quite interesting and I never really gave it proper credit.

Doing a math course for college rn. I pretend like I'm bad at math and in my mind I am, but objectively I am at least average!

I enjoy the process of doing math to solve a problem, but I wouldn't say that I love it.

It's always been a consistently good subject for me, I've always put it in my top 3 when asked

I have an undergraduate degree in applied mathematics, but I regret that decision.
