I'm kind of embarrassed to tell people I know about my videos?

Not one person knows. And I plan to keep it that way until I have a large enough subscriber base that people will be jealous instead of making fun of me. Don't take this as I want to make people jealous. I want to have enough that it will before coming out of the YouTube closet so that nobody will make fun of me haha
I've got the same philosophy.
 
A lot of people are embarrassed to talk about their videos. I on the other hand am completely open about it. I post them on my Facebook so it's not hidden that I do youtube haha.
 
A lot of my friends and family know, I overcame that phase of shyness and embarrasment. They gave me a hard time sometimes but now they mostly support me, watch my vids and ask me how it's going.
 
My dad knows that I make Guitar and Gaming videos, my mum knows I do Guitar videos, and all my friends know I make videos too, I don't mind!
 
Nope!
I have a lot of fun doing my videos and believe in what I do. Nothing to be ashamed of. My family and friends even play little roles in my videos when I need more people than just me. They are supportive and are glad that I'm doing something that is bringing me joy.
Honestly? People who would make fun of you are sucky!
But I do understand the initial fear. It'll go away the longer you do it, the more comfortable you get making videos :)
 
I always feel weird when I'm in public with my folks and they bring up the fact that I do videos, they mainly focus on the money side of things. Someone'll ask "You got a job?" and I'll be sorta shady like "sorta" and they'll be like "HE GOT HIM A INTERNET BIZNESS AND HE MAKES MONEY OFF DEZE VIDEO GAME VIDEOZ"
