More romantic interactions please?

I'd like to request more options for romantic interactions.  The current options are okay but maybe a touch bland.  Here are some of the ideas I've been thinking about.

-Cuddle while sleeping: I've seen a number of folks ask for this one already.  It would be nice if my sim couples would sleep while holding each other.  

-Dance together:  After a long day at work, at a wedding, on a date, just hanging out at a bar ... my sims should have their slow dance.

-SimFlix and chill: Sometimes couples cuddle up on the couch and watch a movie or binge watch a TV show.  Maybe throw on a blanket?  Maybe part of the animation has one sim hog the blanket while the other tugs on it because they're cold?

-Romantic dinner: This could be an everyday interaction but should definitely be an option for the "ask on date" event when it occurs at a sim's home.  The table gets set with candles and wine, along with some homecooked meal, while the rest of the lights in the house dim automatically.

Thoughts?  More suggestions?

    I have a bunch of mods to 'cheat' all sorts, even have the settings of the game to 'not age up', and am sure some of my sims have been around for years! (lol) 

    Not really derailed, imo.. @JonaO703 quite on topic, and your suggestions were great, sure to be more like-minded out there.  ❤️

    @JonaO703 i agree and your ideas are good, in the sims 4 it is a bit bland.the weird thing is that a couple can't make out while standing and while lying on the bed but they can make out on the couch while sitting and it goes the same for on the bed. Holding hands would be nice and realistic as well. how about if the partner of a sim is on the couch and is sleepy and that he or she sleeps on their shoulder? And sitting and lying together outside watching the stars like sims 2 and 3 would be lovely too.

    @ChakaiB Yes!  More good ideas!  They added star/cloud gazing for Outdoor Retreat so I think it should be easy enough to add that as a romantic option; hold hands and stargaze on a park bench or blanket, something like that.  There should definitely be a holding hands option.  I was just picturing a couple walking down the street holding hands and "window shopping".  Maybe add a jewelry store so a sim can get a "look at that gorgeous ring" buff.  😉   I also really like the "nodding off" while watching TV idea.  That makes me think there should also be a romantic interaction for sims putting their arm around their romantic partners, like the sly yawn and stretch move. 🙂

    Edit: I was just thinking how cute it would be if the arm around / snuggle interaction was available for teens too but when a parent walks in they quick move away from each other and get an embarrassed moodlet. haha   Also, maybe teens have a chance to get an embarrassed moodlet when they see their parents kissing / being romantic; like "you guys are sooo gross!"  lol

    @JonaO703 I love all these suggestions! May I add neck kisses? Teens already have this romantic interaction in the Base Game, I would like to see it for Young Adults/Adults too.
