No, it's not true. There are still many people who enjoy happy stories. For example, children often love happy fairy tales. And some adults also like to read happy - ending romances to get a warm and fuzzy feeling.
Happy true stories usually have a positive outcome. For example, a student who was struggling in school got help from a tutor and ended up getting good grades. The transformation from a difficult situation to a good one is characteristic of such stories.
A woman lost her wallet which had all her important cards and some money. A kind stranger found it and went out of their way to return it to her. The woman was overjoyed and this act of honesty restored her faith in humanity. It was a happy true story that spread positive vibes.
Yes. There is a story where a family was haunted every Christmas by strange cold drafts and the sound of bells. They discovered that it was the spirit of an old relative who used to love Christmas. Once they started leaving out a plate of cookies and a glass of milk for the spirit on Christmas Eve, the hauntings stopped and they felt a warm presence instead, as if the relative was happy and at peace.
One characteristic is the presence of perseverance. In many happy ending true stories, like the story of the artist I mentioned before, the protagonist doesn't give up in the face of difficulties. Another is the role of kindness. In the story of the lost dog, it was the kindness of the person who found the dog that led to the happy ending. Also, a bit of luck often plays a part. The artist getting noticed by the art collector was a bit of luck, but it was also his talent and hard work.

There is this story of an elderly couple. They had been married for over 50 years. One day, the husband, who was a bit forgetful, forgot their anniversary. But the wife didn't get angry.

They had a beautiful evening reminiscing about their life together. It was a very happy and true story of love and understanding.
The story of Louis Zamperini is also remarkable. He was an Olympic athlete who then served in World War II. He endured great hardships as a prisoner of war. After the war, he found peace through forgiveness and his story of redemption is a true happy ending.
