I was walking in a supermarket and I fell on the wet floor. It was embarrassing, but I am not hurt. Can I still sue the supermarket?

The answer is probably not.  One of the requirements of filing a lawsuit for personal injury is that you actually were injured.  Being “embarrassed” is not enough.  You must actually sustain injury from the slip and fall.
