Do Ethiopian Jews face a lot of prejudice in Israel by Ashkenazi or Sephardi or Mizrahi Jews?
There is certainly some prejudice towards Ethiopian Jews in Israel. It is primarily informal prejudice, such as failures to hire, landlords failing to rent out apartments to Ethiopians and similar. There are no laws that discriminate between Ethiopian-Israelis and other Israelis. Some Israelis who are asked about why they make decisions construed as prejudicial say that they made the decision they did because they mistook the Ethiopian for a Sudanese or Nigerian Non-Jew who they see as guest workers and troublemakers in Israel (which is similar to the European perception of Muslims or the US perception of Hispanics). Others say that the Ethiopian candidate was rejected as were a number of non-Ethiopian candidates and equal opportunity means that Ethiopians will not always get their way. Ethiopians typically have less education and fewer skills, which make them less attractive to employers.
However, most Ethiopian Israelis do believe that they are discriminated against, even if they cannot recall a particular incident of discrimination that happened to them. There are numerous protests in Israel by Ethiopian Jews and other Israeli Liberals who sympathize with the Ethiopians' situation. Realizing that the Sudanese/Nigerian argument is the most commonly used one against them, they often say "We are not Muslims like them, but Jews, see us as equals", which is, of course, its own form of prejudice (because it implies that Muslims should not be seen as equals).

Ethiopian people in general don't marry others, but a few do. Why is this even a question?

Marry the person you meet who is RIGHT for you, not a person of a particular ethnic or cultural group. Just a suggestion...
