Relationships are a way of life and we run into a variety of different types of couples every day. However, there is a line where their affection is just straight up awkward and uncomfortable. I think we have all been in a situation like this or the forever awkward feeling of being a third-wheel.
When dealing with someone else's public displays of affection, you have a couple of options:
- Don't Lose Your Cool

If you freak out at them, it could come across really defensive and over reactive. You don't want to lose a friend from this.

Be upfront about it if you want actual change. They will never know if you feel uncomfortable if you don't say anything. Just be open about it and honest.
If you constantly start talking bad about them behind their back about how annoying it is, then that is just stupid. it might be a good idea to ask a couple other friends if they feel the same way, but other then that don't go around spreading the news of their PDA. Just keep the issue small and it will end up being better for everyone.
- Walk Away and Let them Be

If you have been in a relationship, chances are you have been in their position. The couple most likely does not realize how awkward you feel in the situation. If you find yourself being a third wheel, just remember that feeling so you don't repeat it once you get in a relationship.
