For a partner in this case your husband to constantly embarrass you in public can be very difficult and painful to handle.
Its worse if it is a habit he has developed but there are always reason why people do what they do.
Sometimes it could be that he does not know how to communicate when its just the two of you so he takes that frustration out in public.
It can also be a sign of insecurity, that he is not confident enough to express himself without making you look bad.
Other times it could be that he has childhood experiences where a parent or and older person who was in a positon of authority often did that to him and he could be repeating the same thing.
It could also be that your partner likely isn’t trying to hurt or embarrass you intentionally. Instead, they may simply not understand the proper etiquette in public settings or feel overwhelmed by their environment.
The best way to handle this kind of situation is by having an open and honest conversation with your husband when the two of you are alone.
Let him know its not ok to embarrass you in public and that it brings you hurt and pain.
In addition, listen to what he has to say as well. Understand why he does what he does and express your feelings to him, letting him know that it hurts you when he embarrasses you.
It is important to remain calm during the conversation so that you are able to communicate more effectively.
You could also suggest alternative ways in which he can express his feelings or grievances that do not involve embarrassing you in public.
It is important to remember that your husband may be embarrassed too and that he may not even be aware of his actions and how it is affecting you.
Therefore, remain kind, understanding, and loving when talking about the issue and try to come up with a solution that works for the both of you.
By having an open and honest conversation, you can stop this behaviour in future and also improve your communication in the relationship.
You can only find that out by talking to them. Note that people will treat you how you allow them to and it is best to set boundaries in the relationship so that your husband knows what behaviour is appropriate and what isn’t.
It takes effort and understanding from both parties in order for the situation to improve, so start by having that conversation with your husband today. With honest communication and patience, you can work together to make sure that these situations don’t happen in the future.
Remember, it’s ok to feel embarrassed, but it’s important to have a conversation with your partner about it so you can both move forward. Take care of yourself, be honest and talk openly about how you feel. With dialogue and understanding, you can get through this together.
Teach Him How To Treat You
We always teach people how to treat us. If your husband is embarrassing you in public, and you do nothing about it you are actually letting him know that it’s ok to do that and it could get worse in the future.
If however you start setting boundaries and make it clear that it’s not okay for him to continue embarrassing you, your husband will get the message.
Take control and start affirming yourself and setting boundaries.
