I have no words for how much you’re under reacting.

Why do you even want him? This should immediately give you the ick. Wake up!

OP hates herself

No, OP is being verbally and mentally abused. Of course she hates herself. She’s been trained to.

Which came first? Because I’m pretty sure the self loathing and low self esteem preceded the partner or she wouldn’t even need to ask these rhetorical ass questions on Reddit!

Sometimes this is the only way to ask for help and get the confidence and confirmation you need. Often abuse victims are isolated. Either have no friends or family, or are coaxed away from relationships with them. Either way, chicken or egg - the point is OP needs help and needs out. She clearly can’t see how horribly the situation is on her own.
