What do YOU do with your platinum people?
Motoki:
Yes and until they fix it in a patch, do not "ask" another sim anything unless you wish to be romantic with that sim.
Learned that one the hard way. :P
Brynne:
I know, what the hell's up with that? And who would go up to anyone, potential date or not, and ask "how much money do you make?", anyway?

Yep, kind of stupid--reminds me of how in TS1 if your sim paid a compliment to another it was considered a romantic interaction. I was so happy they remedied that in TS2 then was completely mortified to see the whole 'ask' thing in NL is viewed as a romantic interaction!
Another thing I've seen that's really dumb is that when a sim has a 2-bolt attraction to another sim and that sim visits them, then when they tell that sim good-bye they stand there and suck face for a half-sim-hour even though they've never had any romantic interactions with each other in their lives, before the visiting sim leaves.
Ah well--I'm getting too tired--I'm starting to sound absolutely snarky here!

There are quite a few added elements to be considered, that's for sure. But the way it is now, romance sims, or, rather, "successful" romance sims, can not go on a date downtown, lest they be slapped by all 40 sims they have bedded, who, of course, are also out for a rousing night of karaoke. They must stick to backyard barbeques for the time being. And a game of myshuno, perhaps, if they're feeling really crazy.
That one sounded like so much fun I had to test it! :)
I sent one of my "high body count" romance Sims to a neighborhood community lot and invited her next conquest to join her there on a date. As long as everything was platonic none of the three other loves who were already on the lot seemed to mind. But as soon as she did slow dance/head on shoulder one of the other Sims came over and slapped her silly.
This is only one test and isn't conclusive (there were some oddities with the lot: I couldn't select any destination on the ground level of the lot, was the big swimming pool in Strangetown), but as long as you restrict the flirting to after you invite your date back home it looks like it's ok.
If anyone else has other experience, like simply showing up at a lot with a date causing a round of slapping, please let me know. I know I've read about such things here, but need more info.
Obligatory on-topic text: She was a vampire Sim (all needs green all the time) and was permanent platinum. :D

This one caused me a small problem. I had a Sim I was about to send off to college and wanted her to be in platinum, so she asked one of her best friends over for a date. Nothing romantic was done during the date, and by the time she was full platinum and ended the date (at Good rating), the other Sim told her goodbye very physically (a long round of tonsil hockey) and instant crush.
Then next day when the Had a Good Time note arrived in the mailbox, she was gone and her father got the note. You'd think he was the one who had gone on the date from his reaction!
