You go out with a friend or acquaintance for supper, your friend has a cold and isn't feeling well. You order your meals...your friend orders spinach salad and a hamburger with fries on which he/she puts on ketchup. As you are eating, your friend blows his/her nose but doesn't get all the nose stuff (you know what I'm talking about) cleaned up and some of it is hanging from the nose.....or she/he goes to smile and there is spinach stuck in the front teeth....or as he/she bites into the fries and gets ketchup on the chin that you are looking at and he/she doesn't know it's there.

Would you just sit there and pretend you don't see anything and just carry on the conversation....or do you tell your friend right away?

Why do people act so embarrassed when confronted with this anyway?

I'm really interested in what you all have to say!
