At the start of the game, Miraj and Kaylynn don’t know each other and neither do River and Parker. I think its because those sims are close in age and the opposite gender.
Maybe premade sims just don’t know as much sims as they should.
Also the play run, make snowman/snow angels together, and tell ghost story, and make homework together, are common free will actions. Also people listening to instruments.
Some families seem to know each other in bulk such as: landgraabs with goths and altos, andrews with harts and maybe clavells too? Roomies with working friends, but also working friends with the single moms, everyone from the beach with each other and with Jamie Jolina (notice that sekemotos, alvis and erin also live near each other!) and the bunches with the langeraks.
Other families don’t really know anyone outside of their household, and some know people bc they start up 🆙 with charisma skills, or because they have a boss and/or coworker as their job.
Nobidy actually knows dead sims, townies, or NPCs.
Some know people outside of the “set” of sims theyre part of.
Fiona McIrish knows Lisa Bunch, Lisa also is friends with VJ alvi.
River McIrish is good friends with Claire Ursine.
Bebe and Holly are also good or best friends. (Ethan also ends up moving with the Bachelors a lot of times, plus michael dating Bebe and Ethan dating Holly! I see those four sims as a team of sorts!)
Boyd and Susan are blairs parents. Yet they don’t know anyone else from the lofts. Yet susan is friends with jack bunch and boyd is friends with gunther goth and knows Mortimer.
my Sims often don’t have romantic interests until elder, so when they age to elder i headcanon them as aroace like I am IRL.
And not only I am invested in Representation, but also i dont tend to do the murdery/dark plotlines (i had a Grok video of Amella, Berucca, Chysm, Dulcinea, and Ezabeth beating up Blairs face with a lot of Blood and seemingly killing her. My dad went NOOO!!! 😭 Also i post about them so much that theyre going to Wind up in my game one time or another. They were the daughters of Susan Wainwright with Vladimir Schlick.) and I let the game progress itself, i let everyone get with Who ever they want. So if Theres cheating or abusive relationship or something, well usually there isnt but if there is its almost always due to wishes and NRAAS.
actually i had one female sim who aged up to elder and had no romantic interests but got a date from (presumably elderly) Bebe Hart, which i never actually saw in that save. My sim only knew a few premades, i think they were the frios, Emma, and madison.
