Bitcoin's transaction fees is very low than credit/debit cards. As there is no middle man this one is one of the reason of lower transaction fees.

What are you on about? Take time to read the post instead of randomly commenting nonsense to increase your post count.

I sent about couple bitcoin cash from Electrum wallet to an exchange today and I didn't realize the fees was terribly low, only 0.009 mbit until i sent it. Of course i didn't mean to pay such a low fee but the wallet didn't show the fees; the fee slider was in the middle position and i assumed it's paying an average fee...

Anyway, since the fee is so low, what will happen? Is it possible nobody will mine my transaction and i lost my coins? Is there anything i can do?

thanks all!

You need to have the patience and fortune for a miner to pick your transaction and include it in a block and they always prefer to pick transactions with higher fees first for an obvious reason. You will not lose your coins as the transaction will continue to remain in the mempool until mined and included in a block.
