Getting engaged to/marrying foreign sims.
vega_pleiades:
Okay, I'm just about at the end of my rope with this. I've looked everywhere for an answer to this, and I'm still not any closer to figuring out what the deal is with this.
For some reason, I can't propose to any foreign sims or get any farther than romantic interest. I have AM installed, and I've tried to get engaged to the foreign sim both when they're visiting and when they're a member of the household. I don't think it's the same bug that other people have reported where sims are randomly engaged to other people: none of the sims I've tested this with have shown that they have a partner in the family tree or if asked if they're single.
Is it by design that foreign sims cannot be married/engaged/etc etc, or is this another EAxian bug?
Ruann:
I've never been able to get any of those options to work while on a Vacation, even when I didn't have AM installed. I have to invite them over to my home in the main neighborhood for any of the options to appear. It may be as designed, but if so it's an annoying design.
Budgie:
You could always use the friendly "Ask to Move In" option while on vacation, then either take the foreign sim home to marry, or see if they can marry once the foreign sim is part of the household. I've only ever had a sim involved with a foreign character once, and I knew he was already dating another sim, but once I asked him to move in, the girl had the option to ask him to leave his girfriend there.
vega_pleiades:
So I tried asking the foreign guy to move in with my sim while she was on vacation in France, and when he did, I checked his relationship panel when he was selected, and it said that my sim was still 'dating' her teenage ex-girlfriend, even though I made them break up and then did Ask To Just Be Friends on the ex. When they returned to the main neighborhood together, she stopped displaying that the ex was her current partner, but I still can't propose either way. I invited the ex over, but there are no options for breaking up or anything related to that...which makes sense since she's not actually 'dating' her while she's at home. So it looks like I had that same bug after all. :-\
Is there a way I can fix this or 'break up' with the ex?
Aphotic:
Not sure what to tell you, I just tested this and successfully entered my Sim into a gay marriage with his foreign roommate, both of whom have participated in previous relationships - the roommate has an ex-wife with two children. Then again, I'm running 2.28, so I can only come up with a) It's a bug with 2.3, b) you have indeed found some bug that has nothing to do with the version, or c) EA hates straights.
