#ThirdWheelingIt


What's more uncomfortable than being set up on a #BlindDate that doesn't turn out well? You guessed it...#thirdwheeling.

Nobody ever wants to play the role of the #thirdwheel, but sometimes you have to. Whether you're going out to dinner with your best friend & her boyfriend (after finding out all your other friends bailed last minute), or you are going on a #BlindDoubleDate and your date doesn't show up, #thirdwheeling is an unfortunate part of life. That being said, we move on from that awkward experience and sometimes learn more about ourselves in the process.

Here are some tips to know when to make up a phone call so you have an excuse to leave the two #lovebirds alone:

  • When they stop talking & start looking at each other for more than 10 seconds
  • When the first hand holding is spotted
  • When they start going through their #muploads explaining their latest vacation
  • When they begin bringing up their most recent boyfriend/girlfriend (although that may be a sign for the girl or guy your with to leave too. Usually a #RedFlag when people talk about their past #relays (relationships) on the first date
  • When they put on a #Ro-Co like The Notebook or Definitely, Maybe
There are many more #TellTaleSigns that one can look for to know when the appropriate time to leave the situation is, but sometimes they are overlooked.

Stay saucy & plan accordingly,
Cara
