I'm a fairly good student in all subjects...except math and physics. I have a 91.3% average (4.0 GPA) and that's with trying ** extremely ** hard in Math, but only ending up with a 73% in it.
I dropped physics. It was way too much for me to handle.
Anyway, what career paths would you suggest for someone who wants to stay FAR away from math and science?

Without math and science, that rules out many good career paths in Engineering and Computer Science. I would suggest Biology and advanced degrees for Genetic Engineering but you wanted to exclude all sciences I think.
A bachelor's in Nursing is one good option if the science isn't too much for you. Nurses (RN's) are in high demand, well-paid and respected.
Virtually any other career path will require an Advanced Degree or you will not have many career choices. I would suggest Finance or Accounting. I do not think the math will be too much for you in International Finance. Accounting will require a CPA and/or MBA same with the finance.
You will have options with finance in Financial Planning, Investment Houses doing research on companies for Mutual Funds. You could go to work for a larg bank with an International FInance degree maybe in Foreign Exchange or working with Foreign markets.
I often wish I had gotten a degree in International Finance, Advanced degree in Finance or MBA and then gone to work for a wall street investment firm.
Good Luck

If you want to stay away from math and all sciences, that limits your options somewhat. To get a business degree (Marketing or Management if you're not too good at math), you still need to have a semester of calculus at most schools. Some will let you pass that with a D.
If that seems unworkable, you could become an elementary or secondary (HS/JHS) teacher, maybe in English, Social Studies or, if you're good at them, foreign languages. You could go into communications (journalism, PR, advertising) or get a liberal arts degree and go to grad school and become a college professor in something in liberal arts or history (econ, poli sci and the like require math). Or, as another respondent suggested, the military offers lots of options.

electric powered Engineer because as a instructor you'll not make squat, and engineers are more beneficial necessary. in spite of the undeniable fact that, being an engineer is more beneficial existence thretening, so that's 2 aspects of a similar coin in case you question me...

Don't be afraid of making mistakes. Its your life, and no one is gonna live it, and make the decisions for you.
