Do you play one-sim households?
Just what it says in the title: Do you have households with only one playable sim, and if yes, how do you keep things interesting? I have a handful of these at the moment, some of which were create...

I have mostly singles or pairs; several of my pairs are siblings. So far I've only had one successful romantic relationship but those sims were lost while switching computers, everything got overwritten when I switched and nothing could be salvaged. Ah well, I'd only played that game for a couple of months. For some reason the sims I want to fall in love never seem to be on the same page; one of them will be all flirty while the other totally ignores them.
I generally have trouble keeping my single sims social need up, but with CoL it's doing ok, because my sim is constantly going to HOB to sell her harvestables and talking to her plants, chickens and llama, or doing errands which often means talking to other sims.
How do I keep my game interesting? I don't really know how to answer that. I jump around from sim to sim, and sometimes from save game to save game so that helps to keep things interesting. I guess I play rotationally, but without any strict rules regarding when I switch households or game saves. I usually do whatever I feel like doing for that particular session. Sometimes I'll do a bit of finessing on a build while I'm deciding which sim to play, or I'll just decide to build all day. There've been times I just built for a couple of weeks, followed by strictly playing for a month or so.
Whenever I start a new sim or family I usually will spend quite a bit of time with them for several weeks or longer, skilling them up and getting an idea of the way they are going to develop. I like that sometimes they don't turn out how I thought they'd be, quite often I go with whatever they want and see where it takes them.
