What Is Embarrassment?
What is the reason for embarrassment? Every person’s perception of the situation is different. It can be either positive, negative or neutral. The same situation will also have different reactions. The emotions felt are also different. For example, if someone calls a person beautiful or handsome in front of a group of people at a party may feel highly embarrassed but will be comfortable if they forget someone’s name or even slip and fall. Many times a person might feel embarrassed for oneself or even for others. They feel embarrassed on behalf of others because they are too emotional or if the other person’s failure will have an effect on them directly or indirectly. So, feeling embarrassed is an individual experience. It is intensified by the fear that everyone is watching or judging. But in reality, no one will notice it.
