Question

How can I get two Sims married in The Sims 4?

Community Answer

First they need to be boyfriend and girlfriend, as described in this article, then you'll need to get him to propose (under the "Romance" section). After that, go into one of their phones, click "Social event" and then click "Wedding."

Question

After you are boyfriend and girlfriend, how do you become engaged?

Megm26

Community Answer

When you have high enough romance and friendly levels, there will be an option to propose under romance. Make sure both sims have high relationship levels with each other, or else one might reject the others proposal. Also, sims with a noncommittal trait are more likely to reject proposals.

What if they get bugged out and they are best friends but have no romance option?

Community Answer

Try resetting the game. If that doesn't help, go into origin if you're on PC and click the gear icon and repair the game. Doing this won't erase any saves.

The romance bar has to be filled halfway, otherwise it won't work. If the bar is at least half full and you don't have the option, try resetting the game.

Question

Is The Sims good to play?

Community Answer

It can be fun for those who are fans of simulator games, as there are a lot of different opportunities to explore and interact with other Sims within the game, it accommodates many play styles, and there are a multitude of different goals. Fans of RPGs will likely enjoy the character development and advancement. However, it may not be ideal for those accustomed to action/FPS games.

Question

Can you flirt with people older than you, or do they have to be the same age in order to be your boyfriend or girlfriend?

FaeFae

Community Answer

Teenagers can only do romantic interactions with teenagers. Young adults or older can do romantic interactions with young adults or older. It is possible to have a teenager be in a romantic relationship with a young adult or older, but they can't interact romantically. This happens when two teenagers are in a romantic relationship and one ages up before their partner.

Question

Can my Sim only date NPC Sims, or can they date other Sims that I made?

FaeFae

Community Answer

Your Sim can date both. Actually, it is a bit easier to have two Sims that you made date because you can make them both flirt with each other.

Question

Is there a way to increase the possibility that they will say yes to a date?

FaeFae

Community Answer

Dates are usually accepted if you have some romance. If you keep being denied, try to build up the pink bar more. However, dates are not strictly necessary for a romantic relationship or even asking them to be your boyfriend or girlfriend.
