brenjay91 for years players have asked for autonomous flirting to be toned down. It's something that many of us feel should be controlled by the player because it often resulted in inappropriate relationships, like with committed Sims flirting with others. Sims were gaining romance bars with strangers on the street. I often had to exit my game without saving to get rid of a romance bar with a random Sim, or delete that Sim. We reported it as a bug because it was adversely affected our storylines. For example I had a mother's new husband flirt with her daughters autonomously and ruin that new blended household. So for those reasons so many players wanted this tuned out as much as possible to give us control over our Sims relationships and romance bars. Even the Unflirty and Romantically Reserved Sims were affected. Flirty group conversations in bars ruined dates, the list of problems goes on.
You can make your Sims more flirty with personality traits, make them Beguiling with a Reward Trait, get them to watch Romance TV to make your Sims more flirty. Add flirty items to your lots such as Flirty Paintings to create a flirty mood.
I agree. Romance adjustments were needed.
The inappropriate flirting within families was terrible. Rotating between households and dealing with an unhappy couple and low satisfaction was terrible.
