How To Build Relationships with Atrocious Reputation

The game says a very-not-well reputed sim can "bribe" for friendship or something?

Try mentoring them in something your sim's good at, fitness, music, painting? The first option is easier at gyms. Cloud/star gazing also build friendship over time, so does dancing to the same stereo.

Of course, relationship cheats will likely always work if you don't feel like going extra miles for all those chores :smile: It seems like keep tossing changes at a busker/entertainer get sims back on the positive side of the spectrum rather quickly.

Bribing for friendship has never worked for me so far. They always decline. ? I'll try the mentoring thing since at this point, I have to make the other sim evil while my sim is talking to them so the relationship gain goes as normal.

Have you tried chatting on the computer? I don't think they can reject you with a computer chat, but I could be wrong. I usually use that for the make 20 friends aspiration so I don't have to worry about phone hours, and I never have any problems making friends that way.

You could also try playing chess together, dancing, watching TV, or other objects/activities that include chatting. Don't forget to use reward traits, celebrity perks, spellcaster potions, vampire powers, etc. Some of them are quite powerful.

@Sketch793 Chatting doesn't work because there is no relationship gain with people who aren't evil or mean because of the reputation. Also, my sim is evil so he keeps insulting people. ? I'll try some of the other things, though.

If you have Outdoor Retreat cloudgazing or stargazing is a good way to build friendship fast & the sim won't reject it at all.
