Is it normal to feel embarrassed?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes—feeling embarrassed is a normal human reaction, even over small or awkward moments. People vary in what embarrasses them and how long the feeling sticks around.

Embarrassment is your brain’s way of reacting when you feel exposed, awkward, or worried about how you came across. It can show up after a big blunder or something tiny that nobody else even noticed—brains are not always proportional about this stuff.

Lots of people feel embarrassed, though some shake it off faster than others. Usually, the feeling fades with time, and other people are often less focused on the moment than you imagine.
