Do you think embarrassing someone is equal to killing them?

To embarrass another is despicable and, according to the Talmud, tantamount to murder. If someone ever really humiliated you, you know you feel like you want the ground to swallow you up. or that you never exhisted. or died. or something. What do you think

if you feel and think this way that means you have a very low esteem. believe that no matter what people do or say to you that is offensive , it doesn't really matter.if you get affected by it means that you are weak and you are being hypnotized by someone who is also weak. it is called auto suggestion. when we were young , it is easy for people to put in things in our minds and we are led to believe that it is true until when we reach the age of reason or maturity that we realize that it is not true. only believe in yourself and what you are capable of and never compare yourself with other people whom you thought is superior to yours.

Surely, embarrasement is humiliating and sometimes demeaning. Still, it can be a positive experience over all as you can learn from it and become a better person as you move on with your life. If you are killed, you can not move on with your life. It is over. No, embarassing someone is not equal to killing them.
