Lots of people have made so many great suggestions already, so I'll make one that would help the game to represent me: a romanticism slider. Before you throw the idea out, allow me to explain – it simply sets how much of the green friendship bar needs to be filled before a sim will be able to initiate flirtations, and will create an uncomfortable moodlet of some sort if the other sim attempts to flirt. Turning it up all the way would disable romance entirely. Since it's not a trait it doesn't take up a trait slot, and since it's a slider it's more easily adjusted to one's own experience.
