My boyfriend is a huge nerd and likes to talk about physics. Most of the things he tells me I can understand but I still can’t grasp differential equations. I love talking about physics and programming with him and I just wanna understand. Thanks!

You know when you pour something out of a bucket, and it starts off fast but gets slower and slower as there is less and less water? Thats a simple form of a differential equation.
The output of the thing changes based on how the thing has been going. Fires burn hotter when there is more fuel, but use up their fuel so slow down is another example. Differential equations are just math where the answer depends on itself a bit.
