Is this new? I've seen my sim do it a few times now with people she didn't know (they don't have romantic interest.) On another note, I also got a notification for a update to my game (I already had updated to the Nov 7th patch when I did this. the file size was 67. smth MB.) Could it have come with that? I don't think it's an interaction you can physically choose from a menu, I was invited to Sergio Romeo's house, he wasn't there, but my sim went up to Joaquin and kissed him twice, once on one cheek, next on the other. I think it's kind of cool but I wonder where it came from? I don't have pictures but you get the idea. (:

I think that feature was introduced when GT came out (could be wrong). I haven't seen them do it in a while so I forgot and was surprised when it happened. My sim's boyfriend also greets her with the bro hug interaction now...

I'm not sure where you're from but kissing on the cheek is a common way of greeting others in Europe, even if you don't know the person.And as others said, I'm pretty sure it came with Get to Work. :)

I think it came from get Together, there are three ways a sim can greet each other, the most common one is waving hands to each other. The other two, which are Shake Hands, and Kissing on the Cheek was rare, very rare. I don't think its a bug, they just programmed it to be very rare.

I hate the waving, it's so.. strange and unnatural. I live in Europe now and I've gotten quite used to kissing cheeks as a way of greeting, would love if my sims could do the same :'(

Sims kissing on the cheek when first meeting?

I think it came in with Windenberg. And I think I only see it when my Sims are in that location.

I saw it once in the countryside neighbourhood of Windenburg, between J Huntington and Dina Caliente (NPCs). I was amazed, and then sad to find out I couldn't make my Sims do that. I wish we could, that and the handshake would be nice alternatives to waving your arm around right in front of someone.

I'm not too sure if that specific kiss on the cheek introduction came from Get Together but I know they added introduction gestures, like shaking hands or giving an angry stare at each other, from a patch before GT came out.

Wait a minute! My Sim has just done it again.

My Sims are inside the big nightclub in Windenberg (whatever it is called).

Maybe they do it in certain locations?

no, it isn't new

i don't know where it comes from though. I mostly see it when greeting returning customers in a retail store, but I've seen it happen outside of my retail store as well
