Sims hate their gifts?
So my sim had her "birthday" (I made it a holiday so that she wouldn't have to age up but could still celebrate ^U^) and one of the traditions was Giving Flowers because she loves outdoors and gardening, so I wanted people to give flowers!
The night before her birthday, I had her brothers go outside and pick the flowers that she had gardened (they were both level Magnificent) and gift them to her in the morning, but when one brother gave her a flower, she said she didn't like it! It made him immediately sad but she didn't have a buff. So I had her gift him a flower (also from her garden) and he immediately disliked it as well! Which made HER sad! I think one was a bluebell and the other a chrysanthemum.
I then, to test this, had her younger brother BUY a flower as a gift (a level Good tulip) and gift it to his sister and she loved it!! I'm so confused??? They both got buffs for a "successful gift giving" or something along those lines after the tulip was given.
Then later still, I had the older brother gift his real gift to her (Gift Giving was another tradition) which was a signed guitar (he's a level 10 Musician so I bought it through Build and Buy) and she hated it and made him sad again!
Has anyone experienced this and does anyone know the nuances behind it? If I'm not mistaken, I think the girl sim is also a music lover! Is it just the fact that it's not a "bought" gift that made them dislike it? I thought that she would like any flower considering she loves outdoors! She even LOVES the Giving Flowers tradition because of her trait! So why would she turn down their gifts? It's not like it was of bad quality!
I'm just wondering if there's any rhyme or reason behind this, or if anyone has noticed this as well! (Hope this isn't in the wrong area or that this hasn't already been said!)
