It is essential to select a spouse who can provide both figurative and literal support.
Users are delighted and impressed by a TikTok video of a woman giving her boyfriend a piggyback ride home that has gone viral.
The 11-second movie, which was uploaded to TikTok to kick off the new year earlier this week, has been viewed more than 3.9 million times. In it, a young woman tries to assist her probably inebriated partner to walk in a straight line after what appears to be a New Year’s Eve night out.
As they stroll along an unfamiliar busy street, the man, who at this point resembles a big ragdoll, slowly stops and begins to lean heavily against the woman.
Without missing a beat, the woman hoists the man onto her back and continues walking — or, more accurately, stumbling — down the street, much to the amusement of bystanders who are laughing.
Thousands of people reacted on the video, with many expressing amazement at her rapid movements and no-nonsense approach to her intoxicated boyfriend.
“What a lovely and valuable woman,” one person exclaimed.
One user said, “Blessings for that lady,” while another stated they could see “pure and sincere love reflected in the action.”
Others were unimpressed by her partner’s condition of intoxication.
One commenter exclaimed, “She deserves better,” while another commented, “I hope he appreciates it.”
The video was one of an increasing number of movies depicting women assisting their intoxicated partners. “Girl carries drunk boyfriend” and “girlfriend carrying drunk boyfriend” searches on TikTok have surpassed a staggering 930 million views.
It is unknown if the user who uploaded the video knew the couple or where the footage was shot.
