A way to force Sims to go steady?
Fireyhellpixie:
I am actually having the same issue. Relationship is maxed, sims are single, no commitment issues, and still nothing.
Oh, and it turns out it is not just one couple, it is all of them. Of course. Can someone provide a link to this computer? I am not finding it through the search.
Taube:
I had the same problem in my game. I think it is due to the sim having a 'stuck' relationship. My sim asked to just be friends with her first girlfriend and neither were particularly upset at the time (which seemed strange) but then she couldn't go steady with later sims, regardless of traits/relationship levels/whether or not I controlled them. I switched over to the household of one of her other lovers and asked if she was single, and the asking sim learned that she was in a relationship. But it listed her partner as the first girlfriend and had the icon for romantic interest, which I don't think is supposed to count as a partner. That sim was her romantic interest, but so were half a dozen others, so it was kind of weird. I had her be just friends with the girlfriend again since break up wasn't listed as an option and this time they both had the broken heart moodlet for a while, but it didn't free up the 'go steady' interaction, and there was now no one that seemed to be her partner.
Based on this, I'm guessing that the first relationship stuck in at least some partial way. I'm wondering if asking to just be friends instead of actually breaking up caused the original problem. Is "just friends" an alternative to break up or is it supposed to occur after breakup, or what? I'm not sure on that part.
Ultimately, I couldn't fix her in any way with AM or in-game actions, so I ended up getting the supercomputer. I've only used it once to make that sim and her current boyfriend "go steady" and it displayed the correct relationship, but about five minutes later my game began to hang and completely froze up my computer. I haven't yet had a chance to play since then so that's as much as I know. No idea if that's related or not, so downloader beware. I'm also unsure if the change with the supercomputer is resetting the stuck part of my sims' relationship. That sim wants to be a Heartbreaker so it'd be ideal if either she goes back to normal concerning relationships, or if the supercomputer will safely allow me to continue modifying them if they don't have the right type of relationship. Seems like there's a bit of a workaround possible for this, but otherwise it's a frustrating problem.

It seems that a lot of relationships got stuck. I had Mortimer and Corneila Goth split up and neither of them can get into another relationship. Pauline and Hank split up and they are stuck (even after changing their personalities from commitment issues) and I also Marty and Justine Keaton get a divorce and he has no options for a relationship with his mistress (these were not even all on the same saved game). I would think that these base relationships were not suppose to be altered, but I have done it in the past on previous saved games. I am getting really fed up with this game. Why play if nothing ever works? To top it off, the super computer, once downloaded, either keeps my game from starting or acts as if uninstalled and changes nothing.

It's not just the base ones, I had a sim I played from birth that has this same issue.
Random question: Do your sims have the Stone Heart perk?
Process Denied:
I am having this problem with all Sims, I know this is some kind of bug because I just restarted a game and these Sims were able to marry before. I also just had it with new YA's that wanted to marry their High School sweethearts and were not able too.
I just made a new hood and it works as expected, so it must be a problem with the saved game. Hope my template isn't damaged. Thank God it isn't effected, my basement tool also is working. Starting over isn't that bad as long as my template is okay.
