I just had a thought and I don't remember if I thought to post it here or not and don't want to read all my ramblingness (like as if anyone else does!) to find out!
I've noticed that when a couple of sims are on dates they might come to sort of an impasse in their wants, like there'll be nothing you can fulfill to get the date moving again (say a knowledge sim that suddenly thinks he's got to go back home and study, study, study!). If you click on the other sim and choose flirt>check out sim their wants will re-roll. It also works for their date by clicking and asking if they like what they see. Nine times out of 10 you'll get a fresh set of wants, which is really helpful to get the date back on the right track.
I read in the Prima Guide that you should have your sim Ask the other sim if they like what they see to reroll stale wants. This seems to work for the other sim but not my sim. I will try what you said about checking out the other sim. I hate when they are on a date and spin a want to be best friends or talk or play with with some other sim! I tell them that is rude and they should pay attention to their date!

Even if your wants don't reroll, if you continue to do things that raise the daily or lifetime relationship score, the date meter will go up.

This has nothing to do with romance or lovers, but personally I love the ecological guru career. A pregant female can make 70K a week with perfectly timed pregancies. She still racks up a load of vacation and makes a fortune.
How do you do that????

Hmm, I thought that might be the case, but it is harder once you reach 100 STR and you've done all the LTR building stuff you can do (such as flirts and kisses, which boost LTR only the first time you do them.) That's why best friendships are harder to build than romances because you don't have as many options available.

Great info Misty! Thanks. Been there a few times and it's frustrating.

All the LTR building stuff will boost LTR if you do an action, then two other actions before trying the first action again. I usually boost LTR by doing Admire/Backrub/Bust a Move over and over getting 5 points for each cycle. The trick is to do two other actions before repeating the first.
