I'm sure everyone at some point has acted like they were completely oblivious about something to prevent someone from feeling creeped out or even getting angry. I know I have. Usually it may be something that I believe is common sense or easy to know or understand, but someone else may find it creepy that you know something that they don't. Or in a similar way, pretending not to notice something that could embarrass someone else due to a possibility that the person may get angry if you politely make them aware of something to prevent them from embarrassing themselves in public, even if you tell them privately.

I know I've had someone get mad at me if I politely let them know something embarrassing, even when I did it privately. And the person would also get mad at anyone else who would try to do the same thing, especially if it was something inappropriate. That is a tricky one. What are some cases where you pretended to not notice something embarrassing or acted like you didn't know something just to save face and prevent someone from being embarrassed or creeped out? Have you gotten yelled at or had someone think you were creepy that you knew something that they didn't? Just wondered what you all thought and wondered what experiences you all had.
