So, I just came back to the Sims last night after a year or so hiatus so I was a bit surprised by all of the changes. The fears are already getting a bit out of hand. My sim gets the fear of a dead end job roughly every 2-3 work days. There isn't much point in resolving the fear if it just comes right back. The hilarious thing is he even got it on the day that he was promoted to the top end of the investor career. You just made it to the career mountaintop and you are upset about it? My dude needs to relax.
I resolved the fear of being cheated on and no longer get negative moodlets but it is still listed in my traits. Not sure what is going on there.
I am really not a fan of this feature... at all.
