I can't "Ask to be Roommate"
When I updated to 1.50 before UL came out, I've never had that option. I just figured that I'll get it once I get UL. Now that I have UL, I still can't get it to show up. I tried removing all my mods,...

I'm bumping this thread because i'm REALLY frustrated on how i cant ask my.. "future fiancee" to be my roommate, i even tried starting roommate service to see if he would pop up in my house but so far nothing, after many tries lol... So i'm gonna try to lower their friendship status again and see if i get that option;
I've read an article somewhere, i'm not sure of it's accuracy but maybe it might help some of you:
Roommates can be any sim Young Adult or older who has no strong family ties. That basically means any unmarried sim. If a sim is married, the Roommate option doesn't appear to ever show up. If they aren't, it should show up much like "ask to move in" on any sim you're friends with. The higher your relationship, the more likely it'll show up. You might have to do friendly interactions first. The interaction is titled "Ask to be roommate". :?:
Your roommate does not appear on the sim panel, but counts towards your house limit! So if you have 7 sims, you can only have one roommate. Potentially, a single sim household could have 7 roommates. Not sure if mods that let you have more than 8 sims let you have more roommates or not, but it's likely.
When a sim is asked to be roommate, they leave their current household, and enter sort of a limbo. They are not a member of your household. They are not a member of their old household. They are not technically "homeless" (Townies). Because of this, if you change households, your roommate will disappear. Sometimes they are replaced, but more often than not they are just completely removed, and sent to the Homeless bin, meaning they'll appear around town, or might never appear again at all.
Update: I've changed their relationship to acquaintance, didn't have the option. Changed to Friends, had the option.
When he was my boyfriend before, i didn't get it, nor when he was my fiancee.
I have the roommate service enabled (males only, 3 sims) - i've dismissed them right when they arrived at 9am tho .
Update2: Also, he had a job when i was trying before all this, now in my new attempt with him just as friends, i also made him quit his job... So i'm wondering if this would affect it.
Now that i asked him to be my roommate he accepted, and his house shows as "No one lives here" - although he didnt come to my house .. yet.. So maybe only next day 9am, i'm afraid if i disable the option of roommate service in my phone he won't come... Or after he does, if he will be gone. Anyone has an answer for this?
