If you have someone in your life that is ashamed of you, ask yourself do you deserve better. I think you do. If someone loves you than they should have nothing to be ashamed of. They should feel comfortable and proud to be with you.

Why do you think he feels that way? Ask him why then talk it through with him to know the steps both of you can take after discussing.

sit down with them and ask why? find out the reasons for it, and if they were ashamed of you there wouldn't be with you simple as that

Communication is always a way to conflict resolution talk to them and ask them what it is you do that may make them feel that way and have them help to remind when you might be a bit off track and going back to your old ways relationships take work and not by one side but both

first you should see what qualities of yours made them ashamed. if those are true reason to be ashamed then you should talk to them and try to change those habits or behaviour. second if there is not any serious shameful thing then you should rethink about your relation as a person who is ashamed of you for no reason is definitely is not in love.

Ask yourself one important question - am I ashamed with myself? If your answer is yes, speak about it with someone you trust. Remember, there is nothing wrong in having negative thoughts about yourself once in a while but it's not really healthy to constantly feel that way. It's possible to change that and feel comfortable being who you are or feeling very confident in your own skin. If your answer is no, the next question would be - how does my boyfriend or girlfriend convey this message to me and how does it make me feel? I'm guessing it makes you feel like there is something wrong with you and you don't like to feel that way. Again, speak with someone you trust and remember to trust yourself. If you aren't ashamed of who you are (which you shouldn't be), the person who you are with needs to accept you for who you are too. You might realize that he or she is incapable of doing so and might want to consider walking out of the relationship. It will be hard, but loving yourself is the best gift you could ever give to yourself. If we can't be nice to the person we are, it's hard to find people who will be nice to the person we are.

If they cannot love you for who you are, and for all your perfections and imperfections - then that person doesn't deserve you. Don't force yourself to continue in a toxic relationship because you feel like you're not worth any better.

You need to know that there is nothing wrong with you. Sometimes people behave in such a manner when they themselves are not comfortable with who they are
