Not true, while it does happen, it's only because some guys try to seek out those they think are weak. It's guys like that who really have low self-esteem cause they feel like they can't get a strong woman, and need to feel tough. Hopefully(and i believe) you're smart enough to not end up with a jerk like that. You're not screwed, just give yourself more credit. You deserve it!

It doesn't help, sweethear....actually, what seems to happen is that when people with low self-esteem end up in a situation like that, they tend to think that they somehow deserve it, and even if they got out of that relationship, they probably wouldn't be able to do any better anyway. That's not a good way to look at things...you may have low self-esteem, but I'd be willing to bet that you have all kinds of positive, charming and attractive qualities...you may need to work a little to bring them out so others can see them, but I'm sure they are there. Look inside yourself, find those qualities (hey, write them down, if you have to), and let them shine...others will pick up on them...in the meantime, I'll keep you in my prayers...good luck...you can do this.

Yes. It is true. If you do not like yourself or respect yourself, you will not feel worthy of receiving this from another, therefore, you will end up with someone that will treat you only as you feel you deserve to be treated: poorly. One is not given respect. One earns and demands it. A person with low self esteem is incapable of seeing their own worth and can not demand the respect they deserve. If you have low self esteem, I recommend therapy before entering into ANY romantic relationship.

people get low self-esteem by listening to the people around them. u need realize the only reason people cut down others is because they r not happy with themselves, so they want someone else to feel as bad as they do. don't let people bring u down to thier level. rise above it, i know it is hard. u r stronger than u know, u just need to believe in urself.
i believe in u

Not ALWAYS, but you are CERTAINLY more likely to be disrespected by your patner...because you'll ALLOW yourself to be disrespected.
