No Option to Become Engaged/Marry After Graduation

(1/3) > >>

nothingbutsims:
I have done this in the past and it has always worked, and maybe I did it a little differently this time but you would think it would still work.  Anyway, Adam falls in love in college but does not get engaged.  Graduates from college, moves out and invites his lover over to his new home while she is still a YA.  He proposes that she "Move In" which she does and she then grows to an adult.  Now there is no option to "Propose Engagement".  They are 100/100 in their relationship.  They can woohoo til the cows come home and even have children, but there is no option to propose engagement/marriage.

Did I do something wrong this time or is this a quirk in Uni?  I think normally I have them get engaged in college, but for some reason I didn't this time.

Ancient Sim:
I read about this yesterday, apparently it's probably due to the fact that the former YA still has one or more YA flags.  Have you checked in SimPE to make sure she's a pure adult?  The easiest way to solve it is to probably go into SimPE and tick the married boxes, then give them both the memories of having got engaged and married.  You can also change her surname to his in SimPE (or vice versa) if you want to.

I'll give that a try.  Thanks! :D

Not directly related, but how do you change surnames in SimPE and get them to "stick"? After editing their DNA, I tried to edit the Singles' girls surnames to reflect their parentage, but although I saved the files, in the game they are still called So-and-So Singles. Was I supposed to hit "Commit" somewhere like you do with the DNA & relationship changes?

Yes, in SimPE, you must commit every change for it to stick.
