    Because if they don't respect you they're more likely to abuse you.

    If you don't respect someone you're in a relationship with, you won't treat that person right, and you won't really care what that person has to say either.

    I can't comfortably spend too much time with someone I don't respect. Just doesn't work.

    Respect begins, or doesn't, at home. If your family members respect each other and their friends and co-workers, you will automatically do so when you associate outside the family. Most importantly, however, you will probably learned to respect yourself, and will, in turn expect to be respected by others. People who don't appear to respect you still deserve your respect, and may learn to respect you, themselves and others as a result of your forbearance.

    If you constantly call your partner a common dandy and tell them to go get ****** when you're annoyed with them it's not exactly productive to the romance.
