Any instance where at least one other character is hanging around a couple and some form of social awkwardness results. The nature of the third wheel can vary widely. He might be a nuisance to the couple and be constantly told to leave them alone. On the other hand, he might get pulled willingly along with the couple, possibly because they need his help, enjoy his company, or just don't want to be alone with each other. Circumstances might simply conspire to keep the third wheel around, whether or not any of them want him to be there. Usually does not translate into a relationship between a couple and a third party who genuinely like to spend time together in a friendly way, since that would imply little to no awkwardness. See also Friend Versus Lover, Jealous Romantic Witness and Moment Killer. Contrast One True Threesome, where all three are in a relationship with each other. |

Sleepless Domain: When the Fire/Ice Duo that Undine considers joining forces with turns out to be a Sickeningly Sweethearts Battle Couple, she gets the mental image of a burning wheel, a frozen wheel, and a wheel engulfed in water (representing her own Making a Splash powers). The burning and frozen wheels have a heart between them. | |

In What Price Hollywood?, Max becomes this much to Mary and Lonnie’s annoyance. In one instance, he comes to their house flat-out drunk and says he’ll burn their house down if they don’t let him in. They let him in, and he goes into their bedroom, completely unaware of how he’s driving a serious wedge between Mary and Lonnie. | |

A Theory of Butterflies and Other Insects: Marcy finds herself stuck in this position between Percy and Braddock. Percy was the first friend she made among the toads, but Braddock is highly uncomfortable around her due to being the only toad aside from Grime aware that she caused the heron attack. Percy isn't aware of what the problem is, but awkwardly asks Marcy to give him the chance to spend time along with his crush. | |

A Mr. Show sketch is about this: a couple's friend joins them on their honeymoon. The husband doesn't see anything wrong with his buddy hanging around his wedding night, but his wife objects. Every time they say the words "third wheel", the couple freezes and the third guy sings a brief song on an acoustic guitar: "Legend, oh legend, the third wheel legend. Always in the way!" | |

Harry Potter: When considering the idea of his two best friends getting together, one of Harry's concerns is that it'll be impossible for the three of them to hang out like they used to. Luckily, they spend too much time snarking at each other to turn into Sickeningly Sweethearts. While staying at Grimmauld Place in the seventh book, Harry notices Ron and Hermione fell asleep together holding hands, which does make him feel rather lonely. |

In Gap Year Adventures by A.A. Pessimal, after seven years at school followed by over a year of travelling together, Mariella becomes one when Rivka meets the Cenotian exchange student Aaron, sent to Rimwards Howondaland to learn agricultural management. Mariella does not like the feel of this very much, especially when she realises it makes it less socially awkward to make up a four. And the only available man is Horst Lensen. | |

The Mickey Mouse (2013) short, "Third Wheel" has Goofy inviting himself on Mickey and Minnie's date. Similarly, the episode "Over the Moon" focuses on the Moon taking Mickey and Minnie on an around-the-world trip during their nighttime date, and eagerly waiting for the two to kiss on the lips. In the earlier House of Mouse short "Daisy's Road Trip", Daisy invites herself on Mickey and Minnie's road trip to watch the sunset. |

Once one of the guys starts dating on The Big Bang Theory, at least one of the others becomes this for the couple: When Leonard and Penny first got together and before Sheldon was introduced to Amy (and frankly, even after), he became their third wheel. Less awkward, more annoying the heck out of them with Sheldon being generally oblivious to it. To the point that Sheldon's neediness even prevents Leonard and Penny from moving in with one another full-time once they marry. Then when Howard started dating Bernadette, it was Raj's turn. Unlike Leonard, Penny, and Sheldon, this one ended up playing both ways because of Howard and Raj's considerable Ho Yay, with Bernie and Raj taking turns as the third wheel. With Raj finding his own relationship, Stuart has taken over. He's been living with Howard and Bernadette after first the comic book store burning down, and then the death of Mrs. Wolowitz (with whom he had been staying while getting back on his feet). Stuart is perfectly happy with the arrangement, however, and all the discomfort is on Howard and Bernadette's end, with neither quite bringing themselves to issue an ultimatum for him to move back out. |

Robin: While Ives prefers to only join Tim and Ariana if it's a double date and he's accompanied by Callie, things don't always work out in his favor and he usually antagonizes Ari even if he is with Callie. Unknown to Tim, Ives is actually an incredibly useful third wheel because whenever Tim takes off to deal with something as Robin without an explanation, Ives makes one up for him while also implying Ari is being ridiculous for questioning her boyfriend's disappearance. | |

The delusional narcissist Glomgold is, he believes Goldie is in love with him, and he mockingly calls Scrooge a third wheel. He only realizes that he's the third wheel during the climactic final battle of the episode, where Scrooge and Goldie focus solely on each other. He's not happy once he figures it out. | |

Cut to Bashir looking bored as the two happily chat away, ignoring him the whole time until he's called away for a medical emergency. After he leaves, Lenara notes what a good friend he must be to Dax to put up with that. | |

Near the end of Tanaka-kun is Always Listless, Tanaka plans to go to WcDonald's together with Shiraishi, but Oota invites himself for the outing, oblivious to the Ship Tease between Tanaka and Shiraishi. It wasn't until they all go home that Oota realizes that he might have interrupted the pair's date and feels bad about it, although Shiraishi herself is relieved that she doesn't have to be alone with Tanaka. Tanaka himself is more ambivalent—at first he shares Shiraishi's exact sentiment, but then decides that he wouldn't have minded being together with her alone. | |

In The Kissing Booth 2, Elle becomes this for her best friend Lee and his girlfriend Rachel, constantly spending time with them because her boyfriend (and Lee's brother) Noah is away at university. In this scenario, it actually makes things awkward for Rachel, because Lee tends to prioritize Elle while inadvertently neglecting his girlfriend and Elle is initially oblivious to the fact Rachel wants to spend time with Lee without her. | |
