Online dating: TURN IT OFF?

I have tried to turn off on-line dating in the PC version.

1. I tried to delete the online profile, it won't.

2. I tried to edit the profile, it won't.

3. I tired to turn it off, it won't.

4. I try to ignore of the phone, it won't.

WHAT is the answer to this? Why is there no FIX for this in patching?

    I never had an issue with turning off online dating. I just click on "Remove Profile" and that does the trick:

    After that the online dating shows up like this:

    What exactly is the issue you are seeing in your game? As long as you don't check your messages there it's not really relevant for your game anyway.

    After clicking the [REMOVE PROFILE], the profile remains, and the phone calls continue. I have tried to create a profile (when one did NOT exist to begin with) and then click [REMOVE PROFILE], the profile remains, and the phone calls continue. In either case, I did not have a dating profile for my Sims and yet dating phone calls came rolling in. It is a hassle to get a phone call at least several times a day (in the Sims day). This is an aspect of the Sims that I would like to turn OFF and it won't.

    My Sims (male and female) were created in CAS, added to the household unmarried as roomies, and soon married.

    Having recently purchased Sims:Future, I can turn online dating ON and OFF. It seems to work fine there. When I go back to my [present day] home, it won't shut off. The [present day] home they live is [Dragon Valley].
