Re: [FIXED] Autonomous Insulting (1.94.147/1.68)

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.100.147.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Werevolves; My Wedding Stories; Vintage Glamour Stuff; Vampires; Toddler Stuff; Tiny Living; Throwback Fit Kit; Strangerville; Spooky Stuff; Spa Day; Snowy Escape; Seasons; Romantic Garden Stuff; Realm of Magic; Perfect Patio Stuff; Parenthood; Paranormal; Outdoor Retreat; Nifty Knitting; My First Pet Stuff; Movie Hangout Stuff; Moschino; Moonlight Chic; Modern Menswear; Simtimates Collection; Luxury Party Stuff; Laundry Day Stuff; Jungle Adventure; Starwars: Journey to Batuu; Island Living; Holiday Celebration; High School Years; Growing Together; Get Together; Get To Work; Get Famous; Fitness Stuff; Eco Lifestyle; Dream Home Decorator; Discover University; Dine Out; Desert Luxe Kit; Cottage Living; Cool Kitchen Stuff; City Living; Cats & Dogs; Carnaval Streetwear; Bust the Dust; Industrial Loft; Bowling Night; Basement Treasures; Backyard; Life of the Party Digital Content.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? By playing any given household and allowing Sims to interact with other Sims on their own without any input. Can be observed by two Sims talking to one another.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sims perform mean interactions autonomously despite not having the mean or evil traits. My Sims who do this have the good trait, cheerful trait and the loyal trait and dislike mean interactions. My Sims yell at their spouse which is unsettling because despite being in a positive mood (flirty, happy, playful and fine) they yell or insult out of nowhere. This is disturbing and triggering because of what I personally witnessed in real life and I have spent way too much time to build relationships with other Sims. My Sim who performs automatic mean behaviors also has soulmate status, positive sentiments and compatibility with his spouse yet performs mean interactions without being provoked. My Sim would also be mean with family members and friends without warning. Even during romantic interactions, My Sim would perform mean interactions despite just having completed a romantic gesture. I tried repairing my game but was unsuccessful. Please look into this.
What do you expect to see? I would like to see Sims with good and positive traits refrain from autonomously yelling at other Sims who have good relationships with them, especially a spouse. Again, this is anxiety inducing, triggering and disturbing. I have personal experience with toxic relationships and witnessed abusive behaviors. Games should be an escape from this. I do not mind if evil or means Sims perform mean interactions but my Sims are not evil or mean and have pristine reputations. I spent a lot of money on this game and have been a loyal fan for many years and expect to have a positive gameplay experience.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

I believe I made my issue clear and was concise.

    I am having this issue as well. It started with the September patch. Sims will autonomously do mean interactions with other sims with whom they have a great relationship.  I have made them all loyal to see if it helps, but nothing. I played without mods and the problem persists. This is very frustrating to me, since I have worked really hard to form bonds and good relationships within my sims. They all have good traits, and were having pleasant and/or romantic conversations when I saw the mean interactions in the queue.

    Seeing as this is still an issue for me, does anyone know of a mod to specifically stop autonomous mean interactions besides MCCC? Thanks in advance.

    I had two Sims who had broken up (one had cheated on the other.) Eventually they forgave one another and got remarried but every so often the one Sim randomly insults the other even if they are happy or flirty.  It's quite funny but it gets annoying.

    I am also getting sims randomly insult each other for no reason again even if they have a good relationship
