If it's a long, serious relationhsip, maybe just talk honestly. But if you've just started, I don't think there's a point in staying together while there's no acceptance trom his side

Be yourself. Your boyfriend or girlfriend should accept you the way you are and not be embarrassed

Don't be embarrassed yourself!! You are you and that's important. The best advice is talk to them. Theres no right or wrong thing to think of anyone, and relationships are tricky enough at the best of times, the worst thing to do is go without talking. Ask them whats up and talk through eachothers positives and negatives. get everything in the open and work forwards together.

You should talk to him/her , ask him/her whats wrong. And If its really getting out of the control, you should tell him/her that i he/she wants to e in relationship with you he/she needs to be normal. Or else...

The first thing to remember is that his or her embarrassment is primarily an expression of his or her own insecurity. Because we all have weaknesses, we need to find the right balance between taking care of ourselves and helping others. If you can help your boyfriend or girlfriend carry this pain and continue to show him or her love and support despite the inappropriate and harmful way that he or she is dealing with his or her feelings, this could be very healing for your partner as well as very empowering to you. But this is not always possible. It is also appropriate to discuss the matter directly, to explain simply that you are how you are, and explain that your partner should look for ways to accept and support you both personally and publicly.

From personal experience I would try to talk it out and go about the best method I could such as going to couples counseling or making a compromise, but it they're embarassed or something you can't control I would probably dump them, because they don't deserve you!

You should talk to him/her and tell them how its making you feel and if they still don't understand then you are worth more than them and they are not worthy of your time or love.

If a boyfriend/girlfriend is embarrassed of you, it really has nothing to do with you. It is THEIR feeling, and attitude. You should talk to them about it, if possible. If not, it may be time to move...in love..and find someone who would be proud of you, not embarrassed.
