In the famous epic poem "The Odyssey", Odysseus has spent the past couple of decades trying to return home after the war in Troy. When he finally comes home and kills the men who want to marry his wife, Penelope, he is unrecognizable - not only because of the time that has passed, but also because the goddess Athena changed his appearance. To test him and be sure if he truly is who he says he is, Penelope asks a servant to move their marriage bed.

Yes i can remember a situation where i got stuck in a similar scenario. I was with my friends in the university after the classes in the executive hall, when a flash mob enters the hall and asked for raising the money for charity to help poor children with their studies. I personally didn't want to pay them a penny because i knew them well and i knew that they would not give a single penny in the charity for children studies. But i had to help them and give them money because of the circumstance over there, because they were yelling, forcing people, blackmailing people on the name of religion and helping poor, and because of this, i had to help them.
This was the time i was so dictated by the circumstances.
