WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“I don't want to be a third wheel here, enjoy your time together!”
💡 Cultural Insight: Avoiding Being a 'Lightbulb' (Third Wheel)

In Chinese social culture, being a third wheel is humorously called being a 'lightbulb' (shining too brightly on a couple). Friends and family often make a show of leaving to grant a couple their 'two-person world'.
