Re: About flirting to friend sims

Here's G male sim. Currently she is engaged with R. She WAS a girlfriend of Grant before, and the romance bar was empty  but still remained after being back to friend. I erased the pink relation bar completely by using 'destroy.relationship' cheat. G and S female sim became totally strangers. Now they are just good friends but I still don't trust them, so I installed 'no random flirt mod'. I had no choice.

@xochiquetzl_xkvn 

I wish they have the right to refuse to be flirted with other sim if the sim has the proper lover like the sims 3 sims. I don't use mccc, so I just installed no random flirt mod.

@LeissaMyst 

I tried the sim with jealousy trait long time ago, and I don't give this trait ever again. :D I have no idea with the jealousy sims.

@siirysiir 

Of course, G sim had romantic trait but the problem is that S female sim flirted to G first. G hasn't flirted with her without my command. Also female S sim's traits are Self-assured, art lover and insider. She doesn't have any romantic trait herself and also she has never had any romantic traits since she was born. I don't mean I blame her. I just want to know if it's possible sim who doesn't have any romantic trait, can flirt to other sim who has never been her boyfriend before. Anyway, I installed no random flirt mod now, so I feel more comfortable now and this is not a problem any more. Thanks. 🙂

    To Answer your question: I've never had a sim flirt autonomously (while in an active household), and I avoid the "Romantic" Trait like the plague (i also avoid generational play like the plague too so...go figure). The Only Pink Bars my sims have ever gotten were out of my direct instructions to flirt with other sims (that being said, I did manage a first kiss on a first date, followed by wedding with a GHOST who eventually rebecame human at the wishing well :P). I think it's fair to say Sims without trait-based incentives do not flirt, unless given a reason. My Sims only have flirted with sims I instruct them to, and nobody else. Albeit I take more direct command over my charges (sims) than most people, going as far as to instruct them on what to eat and helping them "put away" leftover salads.

    Edit: Also I would say that any history of romance - whether positive, negative, or completely neutral, is enough to start the ball rolling on autonomous flirting. As long as the bar exists they're fair game.

    @LeissaMystI know what you mean and I've believed in the same way too until she tried to flirt with male S. Thanks. 🙂

    @aodoherty Maybe because you hadn't used the delete relationship cheat to remove the bar yet? Like I said, history is what matters not relationships or levels of interest; the bar is present, they have a history even if it's not filled.

    @LeissaMyst My male S sim has never had any love relationship with my S female sim. I understand if she tried to do it with G as she had been G’s ex girlfriend. But she has been a friend male S all the time. So I think you are confused with G, instead of male S. G had a romantic trait, but he hasn’t been flirting with anyone without my permission while even he was in very flirty mood. So G had ‘smitten’ sentiment towards female S. But as I told above, he totally got back to single after I destroyed the relationship, green bar and pink bar all together, and he hasn’t flirted with female S since the relationship was erased. So my main point was that I was wondering it can be possible to flirt with other sim who has never been in romantic relationship. My male S sim is NOT her ex-boyfriend but she flirted to S male sim, not G sim who was her boyfriend.

    I think it's safe to say that Sims without the Romantic trait ABSOLUTELY DO autonomously flirt if they feel flirty. The Sims that led me to disabling random flirting in MCCC were:

    Goofball, Music Lover, Child of the Ocean

    Foodie, Ambitious, Materialistic

    I ended up cheating Player onto every adult played Sim in one save, which made them autonomously flirt (more) 😉 but at least their relationships weren't ruined when they did it. (The reason "more" is in parenthesis is because in both cases the "autonomous flirt" was "some rando was flirty and did some social that they didn't outright reject but didn't respond in kind," but it upset their spouse... and my plans. I've seen other flirty sims autonomously use "Enchanting Introduction" on Patchy (lol what no!), etc.)

    @xochiquetzl_xkvn Yes! You are correct. The reason that my sims didn’t do enchanted introduction is because I’ve been using no auto rude flirty enchanted introduction mod for a long time. 🙂 Before using this mod, I noticed the sims do the random flirty and enchanted introduction many times with high charisma skill. But anyway, I added no random flirt mod, and my couple sims are totally ok now. :D
