Question

You write an advice column for the newspaper and receive the following letter from the Emperor.

Dear Problem-Solver,
Recently, I was in a very embarrassing situation and did not handle it very well. I just ignored the issue and pretended it was not happening. Strangely, all of the people around me ignored it as well. But I know that everyone laughed at me the moment I turned my back. Why didn't my friends help me? And what should I do in the future if I find myself in an embarrassing situation?
Sincerely,
Completely Embarrassed
