Women with 'daddy issues' often cycle through relationships due to a need for masculine energy, accepting abusive behavior or holding hyper expectations from partners that stem from past inadequacies in father figures. This leads to extremes in their romantic lives—either tolerating unacceptable acts or demanding excessive qualities from men to fill emotional voids. Conversely, men with similar issues struggle with their identities, often becoming people pleasers driven by critical paternal relationships. Such men may idealize women while viewing male figures negatively, disrupting their ability to comprehend and respond to unhealthy dynamics in their romantic relationships.
