Unwanted tag along per se. Like going out with a friend and their date, you would be considered the third wheel.

Hi Sam, A third wheel is when you are out with someone like a date and you have 1 person who tags along with you 2. That’s the only way I know how to describe it to you. Hope this helps. Lol

I’ve heard the expressions “third wheel” and “fifth wheel”.

Both mean the same thing.

Slang for an unwelcome person:

third wheel, fifth wheel, excess baggage, wet blanket, party pooper.

For someone who is conspicuously different, no traditional phrases come to mind except “sticks out like a sore thumb.”

In such situations, writers turn to similes.

“She looked as out of place as a dachshund at the Iditarod.”

“I felt as silly as a meatloaf at a vegetarian cooking school.”

When you are out with a couple, you are the 3rd wheel.

Actually, I believe the phrase is “fifth wheel.” It means to be extra or extraneous.
