I stopped reading for a while, or just skipped the embarrassing scene lol
OK so like you can either skip the parts that will make you feel embarrassed. Or you could stop in between for a while and do other stuffs then came back to read it once you've calmed down , like I do. Hope it helps!
What if the whole book is about the part where the mc embarrassing themselves? Like maybe they had a crush on somebody and they think the crush likes them back and they start flirting and doing couple stuff, and the crush is just like “no. What r u doing” and that’s like the whole book.
Idk i never read something like that, maybe you can read another book or just read that book and ignore the embarrassing part
I suggest you think about it rationally . In the other person's situation. Like you could think about how you would have felt if you were just being kind to someone and that person mistakes it as love.
How do people get over the feeling of second hand embarrassment??? I was reading a manga and half way through I had to stop bc I felt suuuuuper bad for the mc.
