Seriously bugged Drama profs
Elvie:
I knew that Drama profs are programmed to be in love with their students before I had my Sim start a relationship with one, but I don't remember seeing this problem before.
Drama profs get the floaty crossed-out double smileyface above their heads whenever they have an interaction with someone who isn't their best friend. This isn't limited to students, either. They also get a "lost Sim as best friend" memory for EVERY interaction. This stops when they actually become best friends with the Sim, but they end up with hundreds of losing best friends memories. Before Nightlife, I've seen Sims interact with Drama profs without the floaty smileyfaces and memory spam.
Drama profs, even after you move them into the base neighborhood, fall in love with EVERYONE they meet, and keep adding to their "lost best friend" memory collection.
Maybe the patch fixes this, but I see an early grave for my "confused" professor ;)

I started a thread on this topic a week or so ago - http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php?topic=985.0
As you will see, it's quite a common problem!
Elvie:
Hmm. So, if I have a Drama student who wants to be friends with a Drama prof, could I avoid the "lost best friend" memory spam by limiting their relationship to the telephone?
I can deal with the professors' amour fou, but gazillions of crap memories aren't good.
Ancient Sim:
I would imagine just talking on the phone would avoid all the memory spamming, yes. Then again, you can never tell with Drama professors. One phone call could just cause them to appear uninvited on your lot!
I did consider removing all the repeat memories in SimPE, but then decided to leave them in as they're quite amusing to look at.

I just noticed this the other day when I decided to have my Romance sim romance the drama professor in his quest to woohoo with 20 sims. I assumed this crossed out smiley faces icon was due to the game checking the best friends status after each interaction and seeing it was lost. I can't say whether this happened before NL though because I never really played intensively with them. It is annoying though. But I figured that once he got her to woohoo he wouldn't have to mess with her too much other than calling her on his friends list to keep up his relationships. ::)
