People who suddenly resort to dieting when in a steady relationship are most likely preparing to dump their other halves, a new study has revealed. u00a0 Professor Thomas Klein of University of Heidelberg studied the relation between happiness and body weight and said that the warning signs could include a sudden obsession with the gym or getting involved in sports and diets. u00a0 "When you are on the lookout for a new partner people try to be as thin and attractive as possible," the Daily Mail quoted Klein as saying. u00a0 Subsequently, when one of the partners in a relationship starts slimming down it can be construed as 'preparing for the partner market'. u00a0 "People in a relationship feel less pressure and often put on weight as they do not watch their weight so much," he added. u00a0 "In a happy partnership, people tend to get fat. With less competition, the weight difference is low." u00a0 But a crisis in a relationship can end the gluttony, he said. And that could result in both partners losing weight. u00a0 Researchers studied more than 2,000 people aged between 16 and 55. u00a0 The survey showed that the people in couples generally weighed more than single people hoping to attract a partner in a competitive dating market.
