I don't think this would get you a dream date...

Yep.  I know.  And now what I'm seeing in Romance sims is that when they have a crush on a sim they're afraid of getting engaged, then the next thing I know it turns to love and they WANT to get engaged.  I wouldn't mind seeing this once in a while, after all it can make an interesting story arc.  But consistently isn't any good. 

Brynne:
What makes it difficult is when they have a want to marry a particular sim while simultaneously having a fear of marrying that same sim. Damned if I do, damned if I don't! Since Justin's gotten engaged to Jennifer, he hasn't rolled any fears of marrying her, so that's good.

When I had Justin's father, Joe, propose to his current wife, it was pretty funny. Marina was a romance sim at the time, and the cinematic played with Joe down on one knee, Marina gleefully accepting the ring, big hug, then as soon as it cut back to the game, she dropped to the floor flapping her lips in aspiration failure! I felt bad for my poor Joe. I decided it would be best to change her to a pleasure-seeker. She still has the three bolts with Joe with that aspiration. 

Regina:
I've always wondered why, if a sim has a fear of engagement or getting married they even accept the proposal!   ::)

Brynne:
And they'll accept it happily while creating a bad memory and aspiration point loss! I would think Romance sims would also occasionally protest a little when instructed to propose. I mean, when I tell them to flirt suggestively, they yawn at me.

I don't get that either.  Why would a Romance sim yawn at being instructed to flirt?  They get all excited when I tell them to make out.
