I've had this game ever since November last year and never have I had this problem before, not since a few hours after I downloaded the new patch.
What happened was I noticed that one of my Sims who's naturally slim became chubby with puffy cheeks so I went in CAS and slimmed her back down. Went and played a household just to find out that the character interactions-menu wasn't popping up at all.
Last night after playing a few hours, clicked on the phone icon and it immediately closed again. Earlier in my play session, it stayed open until I closed it.
Also, what I've noticed since two patches ago is that sometimes when I go into CAS and I don't move the cursor away from the "PLAY" button in the bottom corner, it automatically clicks on it itself. I don't even touch the button on the controller.
