Abstract

The constructs of Self esteem and dating are closely linked. Motivation is the urging and the exhortation that comes from within to perform some act, such as dating in our case. On the other hand, the concept of dating is rather new where males and females meet to engage in various relationships, such as sexual or sensual.

Still, it was clear that those who came from households where there was domestic violence were more likely to engage in dating violence.
