He was asked about his lock screen wallpaper — he shared an incredible story about finding his soulmate

A good life partner can make a huge difference in a person's life. They become a support system that encourages one to do better and stands by them when things turn challenging. This became evident when an elderly man was asked about the story behind his phone's wallpaper, and his response touched everyone's hearts. Behind The Screen—known as @behindthescreen__ on TikTok—often approaches people on the street, asking them to share the story behind their phone wallpaper. When they asked the same question to this man, his answer redefined the idea of a "perfect partner."

The video of their interaction begins with the interviewer approaching an elderly man, asking, "I have a question for you. I was wondering what your cell phone lock screen wallpaper is and what's the story behind it." The man promptly showed his lock screen wallpaper to the camera—a photo of a woman, his wife. "Okay, very nice. Who is this?" the interviewer asked. The man pointed to a woman standing nearby, next to a tripod and some luggage. "You see this woman. Show her on film. She is the kindest, most grounded human being that I have ever met," he said warmly. "She is sincere, she is honest and she supports me. I like that." He added that his wife was the "perfect partner."

"And when you have the perfect partner, everything else falls into place," he expressed. "I like that, thank you guys," the interviewer remarked as the video ended. The caption read, "From cell phone lock screen wallpapers to last texts sent, we're revealing personal stories from everyday people on the streets!" The video received nearly two million views and over 284k likes. People in the comments appreciated the heartwarming relationship the couple shared. Viewers were deeply impressed by the man, who spoke about his wife with admiration, focusing entirely on her personality and virtues rather than her looks or beauty.

@mj.fit_for_flight wrote, "The fact that she is an incredibly beautiful woman and he never even mentioned that, is proof that his love stems from true respect for her as a human being, not as something to possess. Truly." @ariel_detvay commented, "I LOVE the first thing he said was 'she is the kindest' and then continued to name attributes. Not once did he say anything physical. Even though she is absolutely beautiful." @bob_baa_jaak remarked, "His healthy facial expression answered all the questions well before he spoke. It said so much about the power of a good woman in a man's life."

@jj_2022_2022 shared, "The way he introduced her also means that he is also the perfect partner for her. Fact: Perfect people find perfect partners." @johfam20 expressed, "Notice how he didn't mention how she makes him feel but rather saw her as another human being with admirable qualities." @ricky_8661 pointed out, "Did anyone notice that he did not mention anything about her physical appearance? Kindest, most grounded human being, sincere, honest, supportive. This is it right here." @namhlassiya highlighted, "He didn't just wake up and speak like that about her, take notes, she deserves it. There are ups and downs in a marriage/relationship."
