Didn’t think I would have to search up “how to deal with embarrassment”… I’m human

What Im about to tell you is quite simple: LEARN TO LAUGH AT YOURSELF! The older you get, and the more you grow to love yourself, the easier it is to bounce back from embarrassing moments. We all have them! And no one is above anyone else. Life is gonna go on. And dont forget life is too short and fragile so enjoy every moment! Im your brother and I love you all!

Badly need this right now. My situation getting worse everyday and it makes me scream everytime I remember my cringy moments.

Embarrassment is the cause of action. Its only embarrasing when you think what others would think...

okay this made me feel better about my embarrassing moment.

@noonoonakapoo 5 years ago

My most embarrassing moment is that I was VERY VERY wrong in a situation that I was ADAMANT I was correct in.

Most of these techniques - rationalization, shifting blame, trying to pretend — I’ll tell you, it’d kill a career/promotion soooooo fast. No one respects it. Much better to just own the moment and move on.

@aname8864 4 years ago

I wasn't the best guy in the past and looking back it's so embarrassing now. It's hard to deal with this...I keep remembering things that makes me cringe.

Drunkenly texted somebody something way too romantic and they weren’t ready for it, scared them into retreat. (Sober me doesn’t even agree with what I’d said!) this vid gave me a lot of good tips to move on. Especially the presenting pearls to swine one! Ha!

I just experienced an embarrassing moment at work today! I laughed it off but inside I was feeling so much shame. It helped me just now to ask myself: "did my (embarrassing) actions hurt anyone involved?" The answer was no, in fact I made everyone around me laugh. Probably out of discomfort, but still, I was the only one who felt hurt from it. And that helped a lot to realize nobody else was harmed! In my mind, I imagine everyone is so uncomfortable they feel hurt by MY embarrassing situation, but this is just not the case. If anything they felt better about themselves after seeing me do something embarrassing haha! And I'm okay with that :)

I wish I could say this helps but nothing ever does with me. Ever since I was a kid my face explodes and it's ruined my life

@dingus7081 4 years ago

Its important to note that embarrassment is a completely normal human emotion, and it happens to everyone all the time. Even if it doesn't seem like it does. That's just how life is 😅

@Yunhwaluvr_c 3 years ago

Praying to not get embarrassing moments anymore, this is my resolution as of the moment 😞

@Dreamyjc 5 years ago

I just run from a situation, embarrassing myself some more. Was in attending online class and I took my cellphone to bathroom to not miss anything important and forgot to mute myself🤦
People heard me peeing.. lol i had to withdraw from that situation 😅
