Issue - what does it mean?

Euphemism used in human dynamics, including but not limited to romances, workplaces and general social discourse.
It is used by X, who is miffed at Yโ€™s refusal to be manipulated by X or act in a way that X wishes them to. X is socially precluded from saying, โ€œDamn! Y wonโ€™t bend to my will, which is the only thing that matters! Me! ME! MEEEEEE!!!!! Curses!โ€, and so, rather, quietly responds with the back of the verbal hand, slyly denigrating Y as having โ€œissuesโ€. The โ€œissueโ€, of course, is that Y has enough character or determination not to dance like a monkey to Xโ€™s tune. The term is non-gender specific, as both men and women are likely to use it in some form or another.

Example 1: John Doe has tried to inveigle Jane Moe into bed. She says no. Thwarted, John Doe sneers that, โ€œwell, you know, Jane Moe has Issues regarding strong menโ€, pejoratively implying lesbian tendencies . Reality: John Doe is an irritating, self-satisfied blowhard and well worth avoiding.

Example 2: Jane Fictional has tried to alter the conduct of her boyfriend, John Examplefellow. He refuses to make changes that are, in her view, necessary to improve the relationship; he has reasons for doing so, based on his experience(s) and/or view(s), and presents them. Jane will complain to her friends that John โ€œcanโ€™t move forward because he has Issuesโ€. Reality: she is nettled that she is unable to โ€œfix the rulesโ€ of the relationship, and ascribes this not to controlling tendencies on her part but to nonexistent problems on his.

Translation Assistance. When one hears the phrase โ€œ(s)he has issuesโ€ฆโ€, mentally edit the phrase to read โ€œ(s)he wonโ€™t do what I wantโ€ and see if that more accurately describes the real outlook of the speaker. If it does, you have identified and isolated the Euphemism, and can run for shelter at your best speed.
