The best sure-fire way to get them in a good mood is to send them on a date.

And 'sides she rolled up a fear of engagement - obviously romance - and he wants to get married. What's she care anyways?


If you're talking about Mrs. Crumplebottom, she's a family sim.  You'd think with that aspiration she'd be all for love and romance!  I think she's jealous, though.  ;D


She's also a lush who loves to bowl.  Safest place to makeout downtown in a bowling alley with a bar!

I've been trying to figure out now on earth my sims even KNOW to have those thoughts about some sims they do!  My sim invited their burglar friend over.  He was chatting with their little girl and she was talking about a sim she has never met who is one of her mom's best friends.  The burglar was standing there with hearts around the thought bubbles of this sim of which they were speaking.  Now keep in mind NEITHER of these sims have ever met him.  Then that night I noticed the little girl dreaming about the sim of their conversation and SHE had hearts around the thought bubble.


Those are attraction markers and they get passed through conversation like memory markers, I've had Sims do the floaty hearts thought bubble about family members and even themselves. You can remove them through SimPE, they show up as invisible memories with the "reaching the top of the art career" icon. It is definitely weird to see Sims show attraction to someone that they themselves aren't even attracted to or have even met before.

One thing I like about the dating feature is that you actually get to see what aspiration the sim being dated is which comes in really handy.

You can? eeeep. Obviously I haven't looked at all the right buttons - I've been guessing based on what wants they roll up. <feels very stupid> I'm gonna end up in that News Box sometime soon, hm? <isn't quite sure how all this ripped lips thing works, but I have the feeling if I keep posting I'm gonna find out> :)

Dates make popularity sims playable for me..its much easier to keep them happy but of course it is also a curse too b/c then they want to be friends...be best friends..ect with all these people they dated.  But of course even one so-so date often leads to friendship so its great to build up friends and you can end the date before any lovey dovey interactions take place.

It doesn't actually say anywhere, but the icon for their aspiration is under the date meter - It's the icon used to show/hide the date's wants.
