I Tried it on the landgaab family Geoffrey did have a reaction as he felt sad bc he cheated but Nancy didn't even Ignore the interaction at all she was in the room and part of the conversation I've tried update the game there's none available and I've reset my xbox but nothing

    @EnCi7H Hi sorry if this is a silly question but have you checked their romantic boundaries etc in manage households/edit sim? My new sim couple had default settings, I wanted them to be non jealous of everything other than woohoo, had to go to this setting and change it for both sims. I will say though the boundaries system is a bit hit and miss, my sim got caught making out with her fiancé's brother and her fiance got so enraged with jealousy he died on the bathroom floor and his brother watched his demise whilst fist pumping the air :/

    @EnCi7H sorry to hear that you're still having the same issue.
    When your sim is talking to their romantic partner do you have the option to ask them to reconsider boundaries in the relationship social section?
    From messing around with these settings myself I've noticed romantic boundaries are totally different to physical boundaries when it comes to cheating or should I say the sims react different from the options I choose for them. Not jealous should mean not jealous but my sim sometimes has a meltdown if her partner flirts and vice versa. Very odd.

    @RheaFallout I'm not sure I will have look bc last time I changed it so they won't want to change there boundaries, but I will have another look at then, thanks
  • I've had another look at it and I seems to be correct so not sure what else it could be

    @EnCi7H Hi, did you manage to work out what was happening with the no response to cheating?
    The whole cheating system seems to be a bit broken in my opinion. I changed my sims to not be jealous of anything and sometimes they didn't care and other times they became enraged. The notification pop up said "my sims preferences is not jealous of physical interaction. This means they show little or no reaction to being cheated on" or something along those lines, so they still have a chance to get jealous even though they're set to not get jealous at all. It was the same when I set them to be jealous of every form of cheating. So I did a bit of digging and CAS Traits, N. A. Ps, relationship closeness (married verses romantic interests) and aspiration traits seem to be the things that influence the reaction level sims have. I don't own lovestruck so I can't say if having that changes things?
    It's a bit disappointing to not be able to have it the work the way we want.
