A term usually used to patronize women and blame them for the fact that their dad was a horrible parents.

When not used in that context, it is used to describe a person who has lasting scars from their father, whether they didn’t have one, he was neglectful, or he was abusive.

Daddy issues tend to leave lasting scars on a person, usually affecting the relationships they are in. Sometimes, people with Daddy Issues end up in abusive relationships because they don’t know how they’re supposed to be treated.
Me: “I have to go to my dad’s house this weekend. I’m scared as hell.”

My friend: “Oof. I don’t have a dad.”

My other friend: “Better to not have one than yours ignore you.”

Random guy in my class: “Damn, you guys have some daddy issues.”

From my perspective it’s just knowing that she obviously favors my sibling more. When i try to speak my feels out to her she ignores it or blames it on me, she also yells.. a lot at me for the littlest things possible. Having mommy issues is like having a mom who likes to hurt you and drain your mental health but claims it’s because she “cares about you” in conclusion it’s having a really shitty relationship with your mom.
Person 1: Yeah my mom completely lashed out on me and told me i was disappointed but her way of apologizing was “It’s because I care about you”

Person 2: Yeah you have Mommy issues.

When a female is attracted to older men who show maturity and are caring. This "older man" may also be there to talk to her about her problems like a father would a daughter. This man may also have some toxic traits like being alcholic or addicted to anything for that matter. He may also be taller and wiser and there to comfort her when needed also there to lay down "ground rules" or strict advice.
