Try exploring things with women who have different passions than you, if only to learn more about them. It doesn't have to be a permanent thing or a long term relationship, just go out on a date or two and see what you think; give it a chance. It's good to be able to carry conversation in more than one thing, anyway; it makes you a more well-rounded individual. See if these girls can help you with that.

Thanks for your comment!
I don't think I was clear enough in my original post. Allow me to clarify, lol. I certainly don't need to only talk about mathematics or science 24/7; on the contrary -- I usually participate in discussions about a range of things, that most of the time, aren't about math or science. It's just that girls who are familiar, in a basic sense, with mathematics or science, tend to be more attractive to me, because they don't immediately get bored when I feel like ranting about something really cool that I've learned -- and because it'd be nice to occasionally discuss those kinds of things with someone my age. It's very difficult to find teenagers who actually enjoy talking about science!
My most recent ex was completely unfamiliar with science and mathematics -- she was into poetry and art -- but she was interested when I felt like talking about it on the rare occasion, and her attention didn't immediately shut off; that was enough for me.
