I’m playing a legacy household but I don’t really find any townie good for my sim so I have to always create their spouse in advance. I feel I’m not really playing by the rules.
Also to create a controversial politician when my sims were living in a apartment in the spice market district I had a YA couple as my neighbor with the wife a politician and had her befriend my teen son. The two became friends and they’d always go out. By the time he reached YA she was almost a adult and I had the two for a romantic affair. Her husband found out and the marriage tanked and my sons Mom didn’t really approve and made believe no one liked the politician anymore. She ended up getting pregnant too. But my sims son realized he was just being stupid and he ended the relationship and didn’t take care of his son. I feel really bad because 3 sims lives were ruined like this. The couple and the baby had no father and soon no mother(she died when he was about a child)
