I am looking for a word or phrase that portrays the feeling of watching an intimate (but not sexual) moment unfold.
Some context;
A is keeping a watchful eye on E because he is worried about her safety. In the process he realized that he was watching a really personal moment that maybe wasn’t right of him to witness
I know that being a voyeur is generally connected to the sexual gratification from watching - but A is particularly uncomfortable after.
“She (E) closed her eyes, reaching out her arms as if in an embrace and I (A) got the sudden sense of ______”

You want a word for the feeling of watching not the act of watching? Is it a positive feeling or a negative feeling that you're after? Perhaps you can include a sentence where you might use this word.

In the exact context you describe here, intruding (upon an intimate moment) would be a natural choice; but that doesn’t necessarily fit the actual concept you’re talking about, just the particular situation.

@Ubihatt - He did decide to watch her. He may not have considered that watching her might have included the incident he just witnessed. In retrospect he's thinking he should have known better. He is conscious of his "now realized as wrong or foolish" behavior.

He was just constantly watching her. His intention was to keep a watch on her for her safety. In that moment, she started embracing herself. So, while keeping a watch on her not knowing what her next move/action might be. He simply felt Embarrassed that he should not watch her in that situation. He wasn't ogling her, but just keep watchful eye on her.

You want a word for the feeling of watching not the act of watching? Is it a positive feeling or a negative feeling that you're after? Perhaps you can include a sentence where you might use this word.

Welcome to EL&U. Your Q is a little unclear. You need to provide more context, as well as a sample sentence with a blank in it for inserting the target language.
