Romantic partners and breaking up
I'm trying to get the latest heir in my legacy engaged to his girlfriend and the option to go steady will not come up despite the fact their their relationship is maxed and no matter how many romantic...

The problem could be that the relationship between your sim and his old flame dropped to zero, confusing the game as to whether they're still dating or not. (You would normally find "break up" under "Mean....") You could always try cheating the relationship back up first, to see if you get the interactions you want.
If the female you want your sim to date already lives in your active household, once the two of them have built up their romantic interactions to the point where they each think the other is being "extremely irresistible," the would-be girlfriend would normally be able to ask your sim to break up with the previous one. This will make the old and new girlfriends nemeses, for what should be obvious reasons, and will probably also affect your sim's reputation. But then you'll be able to ask to go steady, etc.
If this doesn't work, you could try buying the Clean Slate LTR for your sim. It's supposed to erase the reputation and extraneous romantic interests, but it might help shake something loose. (You can save beforehand, in case it doesn't work and you want the points back.)
Of course, if you happen to use mods, NRaas MasterController can reassign the relationship between any two sims. You might need to change it a couple of times, just to get the game to cooperate.
