Hint $$ (m+n)(m-n)= (m+n)+2018$$
so $$ (m+n)(m-n-1)= 2018$$

Guide: Write $m=n+k$ for some integer $k$, then $$n^2+2nk+k^2= n^2+2n+k+2018$$
so $$ n=-k^2+k+2018over 2(k-1)=-kover 2+1009over k-1$$
If $k$ is odd then there is no solution, so $k= 2s$ so $$2s-1mid 1009$$
Can you finish?

Simpler start: separating variables to either side gives:
$$m^2-m=n^2+n+2018$$
which then factors roughly for the variables as:
$$m(m-1)=n(n+1)+2018$$
which since both pairs(m,m-1) and (n,n+1) are consecutive integers, you can divide both sides by two giving:
$$fracm(m-1)2=fracn(n+1)2+1009$$
But, $fracy(y+1)2$ is the form of the y-th triangular number, so the solutions are such that 1009 is the difference of two triangular numbers $T_vert m-1 vert$ and $T_vert n vert$ . Solve for n, and m-1 .

Simpler start: separating variables to either side gives:
$$m^2-m=n^2+n+2018$$
which then factors roughly for the variables as:
$$m(m-1)=n(n+1)+2018$$
which since both pairs(m,m-1) and (n,n+1) are consecutive integers, you can divide both sides by two giving:
$$fracm(m-1)2=fracn(n+1)2+1009$$
But, $fracy(y+1)2$ is the form of the y-th triangular number, so the solutions are such that 1009 is the difference of two triangular numbers $T_vert m-1 vert$ and $T_vert n vert$ . Solve for n, and m-1 .
