secondhand embarrassment
the personal embarr-ssment that one feels on account of and for another (i.e. a friend, a family member or a complete stranger) who is making a fool of him or herself. a person experiencing secondhand embarr-ssment feels as if they are doing the embarr-ssing action themselves, effectively putting themselves in the other person’s shoes.
guy 1: man, sarah’s presentation today was terrible. she forgot half of it and stumbled through the rest.
guy 2: oh i know. i had so much secondhand embarr-ssment for her. it was like watching a train wreck.
when you feel so embarr-ssed for someone else’s actions that you feel the embarr-ssment for yourself as well.
