Clio Cresswell lectures in math at the University of South Wales in Australia and is the author of “Mathematics and Sex.”  She tells Steve Paulson that couples who compromise the least last the longest, and that out of 100 possible partners, you’re mathematically likely to make the right choice if you pick the most attractive person who’s left after 37 dates.
