I got men in my life who made me hate myself more, told me i am worthless.

Why is that some people get a partner who shows them how to love themselves when they are hating themselves and some people get a partner who makes them hate themselves more than they hate themselves.

They say self-love cures.... but seems like some people got partners who helped them get over their self-hatred.

I think ppl that doubt and undermine themself often project the same or similar negative onto others. It makes them feel better about themself putting others down (elevating themself above others?)
It also seems to be about relationship experience, sobriety, self esteem, education and upbring; in my experience.
