It's an old game (release date 2009). From what I've read, the development team wanted realistic but goofy animations. So, that's what you got.
The sims 2 has better animations tho

I actually disagree with the OP. I think the animations are pretty well done and I don't mind that they look a little bit sappy because I'm a hopeless romantic. Much rather see that then a wide toothy Cheshire cat grin that makes no sense for the current situation. :grin:
Could they have improved some things? Sure! Did they...nope! :neutral:
They are well done but not as well the others games are. They don't feel humans at all and I don't think human wise means realistic. The sims 2 were goofy. The sims 3 one are ew... Of course it has better gameplay but it leaves so much to be desired for me. And I agree with the line when you say they could have improved it. Especially when I see all the visuals efforts of The Sims 4 it makes me kinda bitter

To be fair I think both 3 and 4 (can't judge 2) have some less than stellar animations and that's for one reason only imo.
Way too silly and goofy! Silly has always been the sims style but I would lovvvvvve to see realistic motions. And the perfect example is those custom animations people make for pose player of sims talking,walking,hugging etc. It looks so natural and pleasing to my eye.
And the fact that so many people make these animations tells me most would prefer this also.
It's hard to tell certain or serious stories will all the goofy motions they go through. Atleast I think it should be balanced more.
So I don't like too many animations of either game. I have just accepted it as the sims style.
There are some animations I really love of course like sims 3 sims playing in the water sprinkler I wish they would do that in 4. It warms my heart ? they look so into it. And others I do like.
The staring at eachother doesn't bother me.
Agree ! I wished there could be a level of being romantic like they won't stare at each other and they will. I'm a huge fan of the sims 3 but it didn't aged well...
