2 sims aren’t sleeping together

This is not a question, statement. A lot of my friends ask this: why aren’t my 2 sims sleeping together? And I find helping them 99% of the time it is due to lack of marriage, there is many reasons and solving methods so you can reply to help the people stuck too with different situations, I’ll start with 2.

Blocked area / surroundings 

so the first issue is the obvious one. Go into build mode and check if anything is blocking the way. Plants outdoors might intrude, or if you used the move objects cheat, some objects could prevent clear surroundings.

No marriage 

this is the one that needs step by step. Make sure your sims are married. If not you can get them married or use a cheat. For the cheat first press the keys (CTRL+SHIFT+C) and in the white box found in the top left corner proceed to typing (testingcheats on) or (testingcheats true). After a comment area should pop up and say (Cheats are enabled). Then type in the same box (ready selected) (cas.fulleditmode). After you have typed nothing will tell you it is on, but when (enter) key is pressed it is on. Now on the sim you want to get married, combine 2 keys (SHIFt+ CLiCK) which should bring up 9 options. Before shift clicking press the (CTRL+SHIFT+C) keys to disable the white box. One easy way of the next step is done by selecting (Modify in CAS) (modifying in create a sim) and then pressing the relationship button, changing (household member) to (Husband) or if editing on the man (wife) to the character s face. Don’t worry, you only need to do it on one of the 2 sims. Now click the (tick). Try getting them to go to bed together now! I hoped this helping, sorry for grammar i was doing this very quick so mistakes could be found like capitals or ‘-;” in. Wrong places.

    Thank you for posting. 
    The bed - as you have stated - may indeed be blocked. A double bed would need to be away from the wall on both sides to have a clear path.
    Sims are also prone to put things in strange places and not be able to move around them.
    Be sure to check for books, plates, glasses and such.
    You can also use two twin beds until you get the game sorted to allow them to sleep in the same bed. 
    Marriage using the game options is a fairly simple solution. No huge ceremony is necessary.
    Using game cheats is always a bit risky. 
    Always save before using cheats like the one you suggested.  That will give the option to go back to before the cheat was used if something goes wrong.
