Bob and Eliza Pancakes
Admit it. They're so fascinating. Right? Or is it just me? I'm really curious about what has happened to this couple in your game? Mine resolved any marital problems suggested in their bio, and ha...

I have never played them, even though I recall Bob and Betty Newbie. But Bob and Betty seemed like a healthier, happier couple even if Bob Newbie was a bit of a slob and an oaf. Whereas Eliza's impression to me is that of a woman in denial who feels helpless to find a better life for herself, living with an ill-tempered slob who doesn't seem to like her much. I played that household for a few minutes and left never to return, with a bad taste in my mouth.
In the world, Eliza seems very intrusive as an NPC. She's everywhere, in everyone's business, yet also has some indefinable pathetic vibe. Anyway I don't blame her for being unhappy, married to that, but I do blame her for continuing to live that way when she has choices.
If I were to take them up again, it would be interesting to see if their relationship can ever be better considering their incompatibility. I might just choose one or the other, and split them up for their own sake.
But in the end, I don't like either of them and couldn't decide in the few minutes I spent on them, which was worse.
Maybe Neighborhood Progression will get them unstuck from their rut? Now that would be fun to see! Maybe they'll start a family, or maybe start seeing other people! That would make me pay attention.
