i obviously borked something big time so i am just going to un/reinstall. hopefully i won't have this trouble again. thanks for trying to help. i appreciate it.

ZephyrZodiac:
You're welcome.  I know what it's like, been there, got the t-shirt etc!  Was there ever such a frustrating game?  I know Sims 1 had issues, but it was never like this....

But I'd definitely check all my downloads for a duplicate that might have snuck in, also check in SimPE - there's an option for checking your neighborhood.package, I think, also checks for duplicate guids and other things that could be a problem.  And if you haven't ever done so, check in the neighbourhood view in SimPE for such nasties as dangling SWAFs and the like. 

Invisigoth:
Just so you know, if you have one or two borked files you don't need to do a complete reinstall.  You can grab clean objects.package files from the compressed archive in the CD. I've never had a problem with the neighborhoodmanager.package, but I bet there's a clean copy of that on the CD too.

i ended up grabbing my backup sims2 folder and trying again. one freakin' folder at a time. i figured out two things.
1. sims only age once a day. you can't set the clock back to 5 and get good results, you have to advance it to the next day.
2. inteen and i mix like oil and water. i guess my ya won't have "accidents" and have to drop out, never to fulfill their lifelong dreams. i just don't see how it impacted aging, or lack thereof i should say. oh well.

ZephyrZodiac:
Try Two Jeffs Autonomous Casual Romance instead - it's never caused any problems that I've ever heard of.
