If you could have 3 wishes come true (and you can’t wish for more wishes), what would they be?

Mine would be:

  1. To win the euromillions jackpot.
  2. For mine, my DP’s and my family’s physical and mental health to be fine until we each die peacefully in our sleep at the age of 100.
  3. To be able to eat whatever I want and always be a toned size 10

  1. never have to worry about money again
  2. to not have anxiety
  3. most importantly, I’d want my Mum and DPs parents alive and healthy and back with us again.

  1. Be very attractive Grin
  2. Feel energetic and healthy
  3. Have enough wealth to have better options in life but not such a ridiculous amount which meant I didn't need to do anything productive ever again

(Or possibly a ridiculous amount...)

  1. For humans to stop killing each other
  2. For my family to always be happy and healthy
  3. A mahoosive lottery win Wink
Pickleypickles · 07/07/2018 09:43

To be happy. To be healthy. To be rich.

FatSally · 07/07/2018 09:44

Happy, healthy and rich sounds good to me.

NotAsGreenAsCabbageLooking · 07/07/2018 09:46

Happiness for me and my family would be my top choice. Heath and Wealth also sounds good 👌

PerfectSunflowers · 07/07/2018 09:46

I think most people would say some variety of

  1. health
  2. wealth
  3. longevity

For me it would be long lasting health, happiness and enough money to be comfortable for myself, husband and children.

OR maybe to know what happens after death... 😯

Bluelady · 07/07/2018 09:47

Frosty, I'll take your 2 and 3 and Unicorns' 3. I find as I get older money means less and less - and not because I'm minted either!

Returnofthesmileybar · 07/07/2018 09:47
  1. I'd wish for more wishes
  2. Health for everyone I know
  3. To be wealthy
cloudyweewee · 07/07/2018 09:47
  1. To live longer than my brother who has learning difficulties so I can be there for him.
  1. To be able to retire from teaching in 2 weeks instead of having to teach for another 9 years and have a big pension to live comfortably
  1. For my niece who suffers from anxiety to get a job she loves.
SoddingUnicorns · 07/07/2018 09:48

@Bluelady I get that, ironically we’re financially better than before (Mum’s legacy) but it’s the year I learned that money really, really isn’t all that.

Enough to pay the bills without stressing is lovely, but the rest is window dressing.

SayNoToCarrots · 07/07/2018 09:48
  1. That anyone who deliberately caused another person pain would feel that pain too.
  1. True equality for men and women and between the races.
  1. The human population to reduce to a level that does not damage the planet so significantly
Mulberry72 · 07/07/2018 09:49
  1. For my Mum to come back.
  2. To not have Arthritis
  3. For DS to have a happy and successful life.

Not arsed about money.

ppandj · 07/07/2018 09:54

My 3 practical/realistic wishes are

  1. Health and happiness for me and my family
  2. To be comfortable and not have money worries
  3. To have another baby some day

My 3 whimsical, magical wishes are

  1. That you could unread books so that you can read the same one again and again with the same total immersion
  2. That animals could talk
  3. Proper seasons with a summer we can count on, snow at Christmas etc (in the UK)
TooFew · 07/07/2018 09:55

Ohhh I love these

  1. to money detached from life fulfilment and happiness for everyone
  2. our family to have physical and mental health till we die
  3. to have some kind of teleportation invented so you could be somewhere straight away
TooFew · 07/07/2018 09:56

ppandj i love your whimsical ones Smile

rosamore · 07/07/2018 10:02
  1. To wake up or morning and have our bloody house renovations finished inc all the interiors because I'm really to pull my eyes out atm.
  1. For my children to grow up feeling secure and knowing what they're passionate about and having the confidence and means to pursue it.
  1. To live a simple, long, happy, healthy life with my husband. Hoping we've each got another 50 years in us yet.
funmummy48 · 07/07/2018 10:02
  1. That the boys & football coach are all successfully recovered from the cave in Thailand with no loss of life.
  2. That a blanket cure for cancer could be discovered and available to all.
  3. That my family all live long, healthy lives.

I'falls love a big lottery win but I guess 4 wishes would be a bit greedy!! 😬

Frosty66612 · 07/07/2018 10:02

@ppandj love the talking animals one. Being able to have conversations with my cat would
Be the best!

1 good health (physical and mental) for my family
2 ditto for my friends
3 to find a job that fits in around my children’s needs

ppandj · 07/07/2018 10:27

Yes I often think how many people would be less lonely if animals could talk, and also society would be more considerate of them.

socraties1234 · 07/07/2018 10:36
