LOVE. FRIENDS. FAMILY. Do these things make people happy? Evidently not, if this survey is anything to go by.
Over 850 men and women were polled by for a seemingly pointless study by OnePulse, which asked them to choose what made them happy from a list of eight options.
And the thing that makes most women happy is – drum roll, please – noticing they’ve lost weight. HMM.
Here are the rest of the results, in order of popularity:
- Buying new items
- Receiving flowers
- Having their favourite takeaway
- Hotel or transport upgrades
- Having a bottle of wine at lunch
- Social media followers
- And their other half paying for dinner
Yes, 24% of women said they prefer losing weight to wine and takeaways. This just doesn’t seem right.
As for the guys? Well, they like having stuff. Around 25% of men said “buying new items” makes them happy, with the rest of the list looking like this:
- Noticing they’ve lost weight
- Having their favourite takeaway
- Watching football on TV
- Hotel or transport upgrades
- Having a beer at lunch
- Social media followers
- And their other half paying for dinner
So now, lads, you know what makes you happy.
Y’know what really brings us joy? More joy than noticing we lost weight? A nice lie in. A pint, some pals, and a chat. And pizza. Oh lord, pizza.
