  This just came up my mind, I would love to discuss how to deal w those awkward and difficult situations in real life. How to remind 'cool' or handle it nicely. Ok, giving an example, what if you suddenly have a stomachache in the middle of a private tution class or a meeting. Or what if you haven't eaten and your stomach keeps growling. Please share some situations together and we'll discuss the best ways to solve it

  I've never experienced that before (meeting ex bf for me). Hahaha but if the current one is more superior (superficially) then that'll be great  Kidding, it depends on how the prev r/s went.

  Let's say if the current girlfriend is better because the ex-lover dumped you, how would you resolve the situation?( Assuming that you and your gf are sitting beside your ex-lover in a café and there are no other seats available)

  I'm a girl, so I'll take it as my ex-bf and current bf. Honestly I'll really ignore the ex-lover. But I guess the best way is to introduce us and show a more confident and moved-on me, while making sure this ex-lover feels abit of embarrassment. I'll never be too harsh as that will only show myself as a 'loser'

  Sudden stomach problem- hmm just excuse yourself

  Water can actually make your stomach feel more empty, and growl more. (I've tried it)

  I messed most of them out. There was once my stomach growled in front of someone and I just said 'sorry I haven't eaten lunch yet' then she went on offering candies but I was too awkward and didn't know what to do....

  You might be thinking too much... maybe she did not think much about it... Just apologise and everything should be fine..

  How about farting in front of some people unintentionally, and then they stare at you.. how would you handle such a situation?
• ArJoe

  Vomiting in front of people because you could not control it... I have once experienced who have done that.. and he was like at a loss:D

  Underperforming in a competition due to headaches when you are expected to win.. and you got blamed and scolded by teammates.... I was stuck with that situation before and I did not know how to react

  Just saying, if the reflex kicks in, please run out of the meeting room to shit/vomit. It is better get out of the room than to embrass yourself infront of so many people.
