Is it normal to be embarrassed?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, feeling embarrassed is completely normal. It’s a common reaction when you think you’ve made a mistake or feel like other people are judging you.

Embarrassment is one of those very human feelings that can show up over tiny things—a clumsy comment, a stumble, or remembering something awkward from years ago. It often fades once the moment passes, even if it feels huge while you’re in it.

People vary in what embarrasses them and how strongly they feel it. You’re not being silly or unusual for getting embarrassed; most people have their own private highlight reel of awkward moments.
