Sims Breaking Up
As long as I've played Sims (which is a long time) I've always kinda let my Sims determine how their own relationships go. They give little clues in the Wants panel. I usually follow that. What's inte...

I am a uncontrolling simmer,appreciate the high free will system.Who am I to deny my sim the computer, if that is what he want's to do he can.Same with relationships it is fun to go to the park with 7 or 8 females there and he is drawn to a certain one or gives her the most attention then "Ding ding,we have a winner".And find it adorable when the girl you live withwhoever it may be decides to just dip kiss you for no reason then goes off to play darts watch TV whatever.
Am a softie when it comes to sims no longer in love or when one cheats.That awkwardness where you try to talk and they have no interest and get mad/angry declining your bar even further. :'( It gives me RL feels.
One time as a test married Constance Shelley from Riverview cheated intentionally right in front of her and she was a wreck.Never seen nothing like it she was honestly heartbroken and when I even tried regular convos she shut me out and we grew further apart.It was awful even though it is only a game that was hard to watch.Making it worse was the crying and thought bubbles that she had and they were not same day only it is like she dwelled on her pain and misery livng with a monster :bawling:
I have RL feels too. When my two Sims broke and both got so upset they vomited, I felt really bad. I had to take a break from the game for a minute. And funny enough, the relationships they have now don't seem to have the same spark. Only problem was, one of them (a witch) was constantly casting Love Spells on himself (on his own) and making out with random Sims, so he's not the settling down type. LOL.
This is not something I am particularly proud of but I think it shows how emotionally involved in this game we can get. In an effort to copy Quxxn's sim Austin as he played Casanova in Sunset Valley with the intention of impregnating 10 different sims, I too created a casanova sim. All went well until one of his ex girlfriends turned up at his house, heavily pregnant and crying. Up until then I had not really considered the full consequences of his actions. He hadn't even properly ended each relationship before moving on to the next. After a couple of days the ex would stop calling and he never rang or visited when each baby was born. However now here it was right in my face and my sim showed not one jot of remorse but just a wish to shoo her off his property. I was caught by surprise and completely gutted. His career as a casanova ended right then and there. Even then I did bear in mind he was the way he was because I had made him so and directed his actions. If I was feeling awful it was my own fault.
