How many romantic interests do your Sims usually have?

I do have different preferences for different characters, but I suppose my favorite thing is the childhood friend trope with several Sims growing up together and ending up with shared romantic tension. It generally culminates in the soulmate thing, though, and I rarely put the effort into romantic relationships for them not to pan out.

I don't know OP, do I belong in the 2nd or the 3rd category on your poll?

@Calico45 You're probably in the 2nd category, since your Sims usually end up paired. Unless your Sims maintain several relationships with pink bars, I'd say you're a Cat 2.

My sims are perpetually loners (most of the time), with the exception of being romantic to get an heir for the next generation... I have no idea where that would be haha :lol: It's all these challenges I try!

@Mizzila1297 I'm thinking you're a Cat 2 as well, since your Sims don't collect lovers.

I appreciate the responses and the comments!

90% of my sims only have one relationship with their soulmate (or someone close enough to that to get the next generation going). I’ve had a few sims whose teenage relationships didn’t pan out once they grew up, as well as a few sims whose story ends with them. Those are infrequent enough I’m willing to say they each sim gets their one.

Every Sim is different but in general, I love to give my simmies options and have them date a little bit. Usually, there will be about 3 love interests for them to choose from before I finally have my sim settle on one. But I have sims who have only been with their high school sweethearts and sims who used the Serial Romantic aspiration to be in faux-poly relationships.

Easy poll.

Usually only 1, but you did specify romantic "interest", which can happen from a sim flirting, or being flirted with a couple of times.
