Flirt = Affair? Wtf?
Mens Mortuus:
I know I posted a question-type thread recently... but folks here are helpful as well as prompt... so....
I think it is really, really stupid that a simple 'charm' interaction causes a married sim to have the 'had an affair' memory. In RL, flirting is just another social interaction, if it were harmless and your spouse isn't watching :D
ATM when this occurs in my game I just edit it with SimPE, but this is tedious and irritating, not to mention dangerous (right...?).
Does anyone else find this annoying, or maybe how do you all cope with it?
J. M. Pescado:
In Simworld, it's not quite as "harmless", unfortunately, since flirt = instant crush/love. It also brings up the obvious question of at what point something becomes an affair.
phyllis_p:
How do I cope? I don't let my committed Sims flirt with anyone I don't want them romantically involved with. If they do it when I'm not looking, they just have to live with it.

Well, noinstantlove stopped that particular nonsense. I just wish the 'affair' memory could be held off until the first time kiss, since that would be over the line.

Noinstantlove doesn't entirely eliminate the possibility of it, though. The affair memory is tricky because of where it's calculated, and the problem with basing it on kiss is because it is possible for a sim to woohoo without ever performing a kiss move. Tying it to first kiss OR first woohoo, that's a possibility to explore, though.
