Daddy Issues
The result of a messed up relationship with one's father, or having an absent father. Results in younger women chasing older men and even seeking mistreatment in some cases.

I was dating a 24 year old when I was 38 but I didn't try to dress young. I was just a major alcoholic and she was the daughter of an alcoholic and had major daddy issues.

Once I sobered up she lost interest and I got creeped the fuck out thinking about the psychology of it all.
