Why would my own life satisfaction impact how I felt about this other person? What an odd correlation

I'll summarize my feelings thusly: in a world where no one can agree on the most obvious of issues, it's nice to know that 1 + 1 will always equal 2, and ax^2 + bx + c will always equal 0 where x = [-b ± (b^2 - 4ac)^.5]/2a

Of course it's odd I only detected it after several iterations of subliminal metastudies detailing your emotional state. The sample set is about fifty times larger than your conscious memory

Unfortunately with the help of proof theory you can argue about that too. All maths is based on axioms which are taken to be true for no readily apparent reason so people argue pretty intensely about which axioms to use and why they should be used. On the bright side nobody can argue about an issue like that without decades of formal training so it's not as widespread an issue as most other things

Is math one of those things that you can never prove with 100% certainty, but which only takes a single counterexample to disprove? (see Karl Popper and white swans)
By the way imma need your list of the top 5 mathematicians of all time
SpoilerAlso sorry it took me so long to respond :c I meant to right away but got sidetracked with some stuff
