I Can't Believe This
This is long, but I promise it's worth the read.
My favorite EA sim is Bab's L'Amour, and I have played her a handful of times, and she always marries Ollie Purdue. I set out to do that this time around, but this time they would have pets. So I started them as roommates, and planned on having them date after awhile and get married, you know, the works. What REALLY happened though was Bab's became friends with Zoe Patel, and she and Ollie hooked up one time, well that one time led to her getting pregnant, so I had them start dating and was going to have Bab's play the field for awhile, while I tried to figure out how to get rid of Zoe. In the meantime Bab's is dating 6 other sims because of her aspiration. While on a date with one of these guys she meets a girl named Makenna, who was their waitress, they hungout a few times and really got along. One thing led to another and they were dating, another notch on Bab's bedpost. Bab's got asked on a date by one of her guys one night, they went to a restaurant where he gave Bab's a kiss, and then it happened. I see Makenna appear on the screen, and it suddenly dawns on me that we are at the same restaurant Makenna works at! She is IRATE when she gets to work and sees this, because I forgot to mention that she is not only unflirty, but jealous. She goes off on Bab's and storms into work. Bab's followed her and tried to sweet talk her, because Bab's actually really cared about her. She invited her over after work so they could talk, after they talked Bab's decided to commit to her and told her to move in so she could be sure that what happened would never happen again. Things went back to normal, their cats had kittens, and things were great. Makenna rolled the whim to get married to Bab's, and the next day Bab's rolled the whim to marry Makenna, which she's never rolled the whim to marry anyone out of the 6 others she was dating. So I am thinking perfect let's get them to a fancy restaurant in the city with a great view, and Bab's can propose. Everything was perfect, the waitress didn't drop the food on them, the food was excellent, and the icing on the cake was I just got a popup letting me know that it was the romance festival. Things couldn't be going more right. They finished dinner, and they stood up, Bab's got on one knee and proposed, I was camera ready... Have you guys ever seen what the reject proposal animation looks like? If you haven't consider yourself lucky. It was the meanest most heartbreaking thing I have ever seen from this game. That was 15 min ago, and I am still sitting here with my mouth on the floor, because I can't believe that happened. Just when I think this game has nothing else to give, it throws me a curve-ball, and I'm drawn right back in.
