I get embarrassed when people in movies do embarrassing stuff

I get embarrassed when people in movies do embarrassing stuff, (and im a man). like when i saw "I love you, man" yerterday i couldnt stop being properly embarrassed through basicaly
The whole movie, as if it was me doing the stuff myself.
But it only happens in movies, if i see a mate doing something embarrassing,
I'll just laugh at him.

Is this normal or am i just wierd?

    The word for doing that is a "cringe"

    i do the same thing! its so bad, I call them "douche-chills" and there are a TON of them in "I love you, man"... i just chalked it up to being easily embarrassed

    Aw I haven't seen that movie, but I know what you mean. I get like that too - it just makes me cringe so badly as if it's me up there.

    I'm the same way. I'm used to taking too much responsibility for other people, and movies are no exception.

    lol, dude, this is completely normal in my opinion. I'd say that some people are just more in tune with emotions than others, and that reflects when you're watching a movie. I do this exact same thing myself, actually! and btw, that movie rocked!
