It says my sim needs to confess cheating but he didn’t cheat!

I’m so confused. It came out of nowhere. Both my sim and his wife have the loyal traits. He’s a university student, and we have my sims best friend and his wife living with us in our home so I don’t ...

    Its the loyal trait. The trait is … special. Your sim gets guilty if he talks to other in a flirty mode, he gets the feeling he has *cheated* if some other sims flirt with him. The whole trait is a mess and if you don’t suffer from mean bug, I would not recommend using it in this state!

I said above that the game's definition of cheating "is just..."

Let me be more specific.

Your Sims consider their spouse not "rejecting" someone who flirted with them to be an offense equal to walking in on their spouse woohooing with another.

This video (should be queued up to the right place) shows Sims rejecting flirting. https://youtube.com/watch?v=tE1OHODW_KM&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE&t=576 Accepting or rejecting socials is not something players have any control over.

There's a tweet from a modder here that suggests that suggests that this behavior might be partly because there is no individual Sim context in a group conversation, just a group context. So, to use their example, if Bella and Mortimer are having a flirty conversation and someone joins them, Bella and Morty don't know who it is they feel flirty towards. They speculate that this is why the "awkward conversation" thing happens.
