Is it normal to be embarrassed to talk about someone's crush on you?

I have huge self-esteem issues. Whenever someone is attracted to me, I feel embarrassed telling my friends because I think they're thinking "Ew, as if someone would like her." Even though my friends think I'm "pretty," I'm unable to talk about people who crush on me because I still think I'm ugly and that other people will think "She's not good enough to have a crush on." As a result, I keep the crush stories to myself and feel isolated.. Also, if someone points out someone's crush on me, I turn red -- but not because I'm attracted to the person, just because I am embarrassed that other people are evaluating me sexually/romantically and that I think I'm ugly? I also was too embarrassed to tell my friend that I didn't like him romantically, because I thought he would think "Ew, like anyone crushes on her" even though I KNEW 100% that he had a crush on me. Is this normal?
