The old "my sims won't propose/get married" chestnut.
My house was full, so I decided to marry off and move out the daughter who had resulted from "trying for baby" in the time machine.
First attempt - epic fail. BF turned out to be a loner and was not at all interested in marriage.
Second attempt - I couldn't get any further than "boyfriend". Oh he was interested in dating, alright - just erm not in buying the cow.... I moved her to a dump by herself in case the full house was preventing the marriage option. Still nada. Nightly dates, smooching, chatting - no proposal option.
So I cheated. I got tired of the lack of proposing and used NRAAS mod to change their status to married, then added him to her household. And that was when I discovered that although the poor girl was his girlfriend his love interest was someone entirely different. One, Penny Pincher. He was only up for some flirting, not forsome marrying of any other woman. The dirty rotten swine.
Unless you use a cheat you'd never realise that the less than ardent swain was not really interested in "forever". I guess that's like real life. Guy has his main squeeze and his side squeeze.
I evicted and deleted the pair of them from the game.
The End.
That does perhaps explain the question of why some sims just never get to "pop the question", no matter how long you try.
