Third Wheels Who Found Themselves In Awkward Situations
Have you ever been the third wheel? If you have, you know that things can get pretty awkward when your two romantically involved friends start making out and you're just sitting there next to them like, "Okay guys, I'll just wait until you're finished." They say that one is the loneliest number, but sometimes, one is only lonely if one is in a group of three.
Keep reading to see some silly, awkward, and entertaining third wheel situations.
I'll Just Go
This woman's boyfriend and her cat seem to have struck up a relationship of their own. It's great that they get along so well, but now she feels like the third wheel.
A Really Long Arm
The guy in the background doesn't actually have a really long arm. This is just an optical illusion. Still, it looks pretty awkward. Do you think he even realizes that he's the third wheel in this photo?
She Thought It Was A Nice Photo
This woman liked this photo of her and her boyfriend so much that she decided to frame it and put it on her keychain. Then she noticed what was going on in the background.
Time To Cross
This boy is obviously in some kind of intimate relationship with his phone. The "seeing eye person" in front of him is absolutely necessary. How else could he cross the street safely?
Get A Room
This dog and this dolphin seem to have some sort of loving relationship going on. The person who took this picture is definitely third-wheeling. These two are lost in their own world.
Where's Her Ring?
This man finally popped the question, but now that baby hippo in the background is wondering where her ring is. She'll find a nice boy hippo one day, but for now, she's the third wheel.
A Tall Proposal
Here's another instance of an animal intruding on somebody's proposal. The giraffe looks like he's watching over the whole operation to make sure it goes smoothly. She'd better say yes.
Parents, Am I Right?
These parents are kissing to celebrate the fact that they have another little one on the way. Their little one who is already here has a lot to say about that.
He Doesn't Look Too Thrilled
This guy decided to go out for drinks with two of his friends who are in a relationship with each other. They basically just made out the whole time. Awkward.
He Knows How To Clear A Bench
This bald eagle landed on a bench and everybody moved to make room for him. You definitely don't want to be on the wrong end of those talons. Sometimes being the third wheel is a powerful position.
You May Kiss The Bride
These two got married and decided to invite a llama to their wedding. We're not sure who the llama belongs to or why he's there, but we do know that this is a pretty great photo.
He Feels Left Out
The two huskies in the background are having a grand old time kissing and playing, and the one in the foreground is just watching and waiting to be included. He knows what it's like to be a third wheel.
He Wants In
These three llamas are having a llama pile party and the dog is just standing on the sidelines. He looks so disappointed. He's not even a third wheel, he's a fourth wheel.
That Face, Though
These two girls had no idea that there was a third girl just behind them pulling the silliest face of all time. I think she makes this picture so much better.
Just A Bunch Of Witches
The ladies in this family decided that they all wanted to be witches for Halloween. Dad didn't want to be left out, so he dressed up as a Manwich can.
Happy Valentine's Day To You Too
This guy went to a Valentine's Day party as a single dude. Everyone else was coupled up, so he ended up being the 7th wheel. Is it worse to be a 7th wheel than a third wheel?
A Third Wheel Booth
This booth looks like it's made for third wheels. There's a love seat for a couple and a single seat right across from it. How many awkward meals have happened in this spot?
Does He Know Them?
We're not sure if this guy is standing next to this couple because he knows them or if he's just a random dude that they came way too close to.
You Seeing This?
This owl looks pretty annoyed that his two friends are canoodling right in front of him. Somebody get him an owl to kiss ASAP. He deserves his own partner too.
Can I Go Now?
These photos of a couple rolling around on a couch at a party look cute until you realize that there must have been a third wheel there taking all of those photos.
A Romantic Moment
These two were enjoying a romantic moment in the park, possibly taking some engagement photos, when a man walked up behind them and interrupted their session. Well, that's super awkward.
She's Not Impressed
This little girl's parents are making out right in front of her. We think her face says it all. Also, is she the one who took this photo? It kind of looks like a selfie.
The Red Room
Weird stuff goes on in this red room. It's not a place you want to be as a third wheel. If this guy knew what was good for him, he'd get out of there fast.
What Being A Third Wheel Feels Like
This picture perfectly sums up what it's like to be a third wheel. Those two bags of soil look super happy pressed up against each other like that, and the third one looks so sad.
The Biggest Third Wheel
This is how gray whales mate. The two mating whales face each other and then a third whale props up the female from the bottom. It's probably not much fun being that third whale.
A Third Wheel Out In The Wild
This woman spotted a third wheel situation out in the wild and she had to snap a picture of it. The third wheel at that table can't even bear to look at her friends.
It's Prom Day
These three friends decided to go to prom together. Well, two of them decided to go to prom together, and the third one is just there because she didn't have a date.
A Professional Third Wheel
The guy in the T-shirt in this photo makes it his mission to be the third wheel in photos with brides and grooms all over the world. Every time he sees a wedding happening, he asks to get in on the action.
Here He Is Again
Yes, this is the same guy. This time, he's shirtless. I mean, it is a beach wedding, what did you expect? He has so many photos like this is his collection.
Put Your Third Wheel To Good Use
This couple found the perfect use for their third wheel. They had him hold up the Nintendo Switch as they both played Animal Crossing on a train. This isn't awkward at all...
