immediately break up with them and surround yourself with people who love you and are not ashamed of you whatsoever!

Do you know why they are ashamed? If so, think about whether their reasons are valid or superficial. If valid, try to understand why. If superficial, think about whether being with that person is healthy for you. Self-worth is important.

Break up with them and love yourself for a little while, until you can find someone worthy of you. Anyone who is ashamed of you when they should be loving you is not worth your time, dating somebody is supposed to help you become the best person possible- not make you question your self-worth. You are amazing and deserve better than that.

That really depends on why you think he/she is ashamed. If you did something you regret, perhaps you should explore why you made that choice, factors it involved and how you feel about it. If you feel like he/she is ashamed of you but you don't know why, perhaps it is negative self-talk and self esteem issues. Try exploring where you are, what you want and how that effects how you feel. Best of luck!

If your partner is ashamed of you, don't spend your time on them! They aren't worthy of you and your self worth.

Talk to him or her, ask them what's wrong and try to see what the problem is. .

No human being is perfect. Did your boyfriend or girlfriend tell you why they are ashamed of you? How do you feel hearing that from him or her?

Ask why. If it's something reasonable such as "You're racist", fix it. If it's some bullshit like "I hate your Pokemon obsession"/"You talk too much"/"You get too excited, it's stupid"/"You have no fashion sense"/"You hang out with losers" etc. promptly dump their ass because they're being narrow minded and judgemental and don't deserve you.

If someone is ashamed of you, please understand it is not your shortfall but theirs. They have expectations, etc that you will never meet. Talk to them if you wish, but you may want to consider moving on with your life...in love...without them. There is someone out there for you who would be proud and not ashamed of you.
