Question

How can I speed up the process of getting two Sims from a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship to marriage in The Sims 3?

Sweet.Potato

Community Answer

To speed things up, select the "Propose Marriage" option in the interactions menu. Ensure that your Sims engage in romantic actions such as kissing and hugging beforehand to increase the chances of success and avoid rejection.

Question

Can my Sims have a baby before marriage?

Community Answer

Yes, they can have it in the “romantic interest” stage. Get them at the point where it’s at “extremely irresistible” and then select “try for a baby."

Question

My Sims seem to be stuck at the "romantic interest" stage. How do I get them to be boyfriend/girlfriend?

Community Answer

Interact with the romantic interest and choose "Romantic" options ("Flirt," "Compliment Appearance," etc.) until their relationship bubble says "So and So thinks you are being flirty." Interact with them, choose "Romantic," then choose "Propose Going Steady." If they accept, they will then be boyfriend/girlfriend. Depending on the romantic interest's personality traits (for example, if they have the "Commitment Issues" trait), their relationship bubble may need to say "So and So thinks you are extremely irresistible" before "Propose Going Steady" appears.

Question

My sims are just staying as boyfriend and girlfriend. How do I make them go further?

Community Answer

Use lots of romantic interactions, then click "Propose marriage". Use "Friendly" or "Funny" interactions first though, or the other Sim will get creeped out.

I saw the tab, "propose going steady," but then I accidentally pressed "embrace," and when I went back, it wasn't there any more. What can I do?

My Sims have already woo-hooed multiple times, yet it does not give me the option to propose. Is there a way to go further?

Community Answer

Keep using "romantic" interactions until the relationship bubble (at the top left corner of the screen) says, "Sim1 thinks Sim2 is being extremely irresistible."

Question

Is this game okay for small children?

Community Answer

The game is rated "Teen," as there is some mild adult content, but it's up to each parent's individual discretion. Watch some gameplay on YouTube and see what you think before giving it to your child.

Question

How do I make babies grow up faster in Sims freeplay?

Community Answer

Get lots of LP (lifestyle points) and bake them a birthday cake. If you have enough LP, you can skip the wait and get the cake instantly. Then, go to the baby and select the age option.

Question

Can I get married to the grim reaper?

Community Answer

Not in the current updates. In fact, if you have installed the Late Night expansion or anything later, he can't move in either.

Question

Why can't I add fairies to the Sims 3 for the PlayStation 3?

Community Answer

To get fairies and werewolves and other mythical creatures, you need to download different packs. You might also need a more updated version of the game. Try to update it, get mods or packs. If it does not work, you may need to re download the game, because it might happen because of a bug.

Question

Can an adult get married to a young adult?

FaeFae

Top Answerer

Yes. However, they will be with each other less because the adult will die of old age faster.
