We all know what being a ‘third wheel’ is. It’s basically being the single friend who always has to hang out with their couple friends. Your designation in your social group is the ‘third wheel’ and it becomes more of an obligation than a title if the couple are your best friends.

Sometimes, however, you just cannot, under any circumstances, be the third wheel- some things in life are just not worth it, you know? Some couples, make third-wheeling seem like the most annoying thing you could ever do and so here are the couple that we’d all rather punch ourselves in the face multiple times than third wheel with:

The Always-All-Over-Each-Other, PDA-Loving Couple:

Ugh, just ugh. I mean, please refrain from touching every part of each other while we’re hanging out, please. Keep it till when I’m long gone and not seated on the same couch in the same room. It just makes things super awkward and uncomfortable; hold on, this goes without even saying, why am I trying to explain my reasons for not wanting to see you getting hot and heavy?

The Constantly Bickering Couple Who Fight More Than Talk:

CALM DOWN. LOVE EACH OTHER, OKAY? No? Alright, please leave each other and let’s all peacefully move on with our lives, sounds good? No? Okay then count me out of outings with you two completely mad human beings. You know that couple, they’re like fire and gasoline; always disagreeing on things and starting big, meaningless quarrels over absolutely nothing. Oh, and it only gets worse when they ask you to step in and take sides. Like, no, I’m Switzerland here; completely side-less. So, you end up just staring at your phone trying to look distracted while praying for this outing to be over as soon as humanly possible.

The Always Bragging Couple Who Won’t Shut Up About Each Other’s Awesomeness:

I mean, if you think your significant other is a great human being, I will be more than happy for you too. I’d love to hear about how you two are doing and how things are going between you, but if you spend 3 consecutive hours complimenting each other, arguing over who loves the other more and simply being cheesy as hell, I will have to refrain from ever hanging out alone with you two for more than 15 minutes- just saying!

The Couple Who Simply Ignore Your Existence All-Together:

They’re so into each other that they simply don’t even look your way throughout the whole outing. The one thing you keep thinking about when you’re hanging out with them is: why did you invite me? WHYYYYY?

Those 4 types of couples might as well wear “don’t sit with us” warning signs at all times, but there are some couples who are genuinely fun to hang out with. You know, the ones who despite being cute together can act all normal when they’re with their friends and actually enjoy spending time with other people. Those couples are the ones you won’t even think twice about third wheeling with!
