ULY MARRERO: I felt MYSELF is Russian, not English.
Вот, что Uly Marrero написал:

EMBARRASSED is also too strong, in my opinion

Neck and neck 😁
AWKWARD and UNCOMFORTABLE are fitting translations here. EMBARRASSED is too strong and best translations стыдно in my opinion.
Felt MYSELF is Russian, not English
I guess this refers to "felt myself uncomfortable"
My example was from Edna Guttmann's book (2014?), who is of Japanese descent, born in Presidente Prudente, Brazil, and came to USA as an immigrant in 1968.
There ara many other examples in books, and other places.
However,
Be Careful!
When you use feel to say that someone experiences an emotion or a physical sensation, don't use a reflexive pronoun. Don't say, for example, 'I felt myself uncomfortable'. You say 'I felt uncomfortable'.
Вот что ответил Улий:
Please respond to Grumbler... Yes, that is definitely immigrant English. A native speaker would only use MYSELF before a verb phrase if he felt a process happening within themself: "As I read his letter, I felt myself hating him more and more with each word." It can also be used in front of a plain verb phrase (not progressive) to express that you did something almost involuntarily: "As I lay in the darkness of my bedroom, I heard the door click and knew it was him. I felt myself reach under my pillow for my gun, pointed it straight in front of me and felt myself pull the trigger... The next sound I heard was the thump of dead weight hitting the floor." But if you're talking about being in a certain state or emotion, you can't use it: I felt awkward/out of place/satisfied/vindicated, etc. Grumbler, quite aside form this, I would like to wish you a very happy, healthy and prosperous New Year from Florida!
✅ and thank you
