They can autonomously cheat.

I like drama in my game. But if he is displeasing you then do as Zazazu says and kill him. You rule the sim universe and if his sins are too many, smite him.
sintrinity:
I was surprised by this as well. It is quite annoying when it makes no sense. For example, Judy Bunch - happily married with 4 kids and one on the way - was found asking Gunther Goth to cuddle on a park bench. I don't believe he was even an aquaintance. I can't remember exactly but I think she has the "family" trait too.
Worse yet, my doctor sim was trying to pick up on Hank Goddard when she is happily married with kids and a genius, bookwormy type. To top it off he was having none of it and he DOES have the personality to cheat. As a matter of fact I think that is his wish is to have 10 girlfriends or some such.
Something definitely needs some tweaking.

Personally I don't play the romantic traits, I like the more self centered Sims.
My friend has a similar situation with a "hopeless romantic" sim, he also autonomously flirts outrageously.
I can only think that the combination of the hopeless romantic and charismatic traits lead to this behaviour.
it might be that some "life" choices are determined at an early stage and set into the AI for the life of the sim.
I've come to believe that Hopeless Romantic is a misnomer in TS3, just like Romance was in TS2. In TS2, Romance should have been called Slutty. In TS3, Hopeless Romantic is more like Seductive. A true Hopeless Romantic would find their advances rebuffed, yet want to fall in love more than anything.

Yeh Hey...
Now that all makes sense and that is the reason I came here. Two weeks on EA, bugger all, One day on here and all my questions anwered.
So Hopeless Romance probably Hopeless Seductor, they just cannot help it but EA called it Romance to make it sound a little more palatable for the younger players.
Funny thing is he does not flirt with anyone at all until he has a romantic attachment. I have seen him age and pop his clogs many times...alone.
Ruddy stupid description then in CAS as it states they are always searching for their soul mates, it forgot to mention they don't know it when they find it...lol
Thankyou everyone for your prompt answers.
This is really the only site to visit if you want sensible replies.
Kind regards

I'd like to know if I could trade my game with YOURS. I have seen VERY little autonomous flirting, even between Sims in love. They rarely ever get the Woohoo/flirt/kiss wish unless I've been deliberately directing traffic in that direction. (And it's not nearly as useful to Woohoo either, since there is such little point reward for it relative to time expended, unlike TS2.)
I've seen Sims autonomously flirting with other sims in public about... oh, I think TWO TIMES.
So, please, let's get together and swap games. I WISH my Sims would flirt and seduce each other.
I have also not had a single instance of two townies falling in love and marrying. The only new married couples in the game are ones that moved to town already married, or ones that I forced to marry each other. I would love to see more evolution in the story progression than that.
EDITED TO ADD:
One of the times that I witnessed spontaneous flirting in the park was between a married Flirty Sim, flirting with a stranger, who is married to a Family Sim. She did it right in front of him and he never reacted. That's bullshit.
