Re: [NOT BUG] NPC initiated dates are almost always unsuccessful

Sorry if I misunderstood you but it sounded like the going to the bathroom took a long time because you having issues with bystanders but reading your post again it said: AND without correlation between the bystanders and the bathroom visit.

I agree that this sounds very needy.

This was the original thread: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/FIXED-NPC-Social-Events-always-end-badly/m-p/4545434#M13026 on the issue. You never have a counter if you get invited which make sense, as you shouldn't have to do stuff as YOU get invited.

There should may be no classification for dates if you get invited as for the rest of the social events.

It's a bit hard to get an invitation triggered so I can't really try this until I get one.

I'll add it for now but changed your title to better reflect the issue.

    I just went through getting a couple together in the last couple of days.  My active sim asked his intended out twice, neither date was very successful which surprised me because I don't usually have problems getting good dating outcomes.  The next time they had a date, he was the one that was invited out.  The romance bar was much easier to fill and the date ended with her agreeing to be his girlfriend and move in with him.  In my case, with this particular couple, it was much easier to get them together with the active sim being the one who was invited out.

    Did you not complete the goals when you invited the other Sims out ?

    @crinrict, no I couldn't complete the goals on either one of the first two dates.  For some reason, both of those sims kept getting the embarrassed buff and I just couldn't get the romance bar to advance much at all.  They were good friends but suddenly kept having "awkward encounter" moods.

    I don't usually have a problem meeting the goals.  I don't think I'd had less than gold on a date in about 3 months.

    I've tested this over the weekend and had no troubles getting successful dates.

    As @canelacaliente said, you should get messages on how the date is going.

    Mine were not married and successful nonetheless except the last one when my Sim decided to flirt with someone else while on the date. The Date kinda didn't appreciate that :P
