Well, yes you marry him..

I finally got my first phone call since the patch. Originally all I was getting is Sims telling my Sims that there was a real need for help in HoB, but that's gone on since that pack released. Yesterday, my Sim got a phone call from her beloved asking her advice. Apparently, he was rummaging through her purse (say, what?) and found a ring which made him realize she was going to propose. All I could think of was, what were you doing going through her purse in the first place, is nothing sacred? LOL But then she got three choices for answers. Since this couple is destined, I had her say of course you should say yes. Then I got the popup the two were engaged. Well, that spares me trying to get them to that point. LOL (Gosh, I hope there isn't another Brianna in the game. :open_mouth: ) Oh, if this doesn't work out I'm going to be upset.

ETA: Checked while playing my game yesterday and my Brianna is now engaged to her Beloved. Yay! Bring it on!

@SimmerMars Thank you :)


Hmm…. I wish there was a way to safeguard certain families so that they would remain unaffected. As it is now I think the game will add story changes to households that I already have plans for.

I would prefer having a dramatic wedding proposal rather than via phone call

I've sometimes had Elder Sims phone and ask if they should try for a baby!! It's usually a female Elder, too, so she can't conceive. It also tends to happen when they've already got 2 or 3 adult children... do you REALLY want to go through the baby stage again?

well they cant so no harm in trying. :)

So, with the new patch to sims are calling to ask about important life choices. My sim answers his cell phone to hear the excited tones of Angela Pleasant saying she found a ring in her boyfriend's bag what should she say. Well, I mean I'm your boyfriend so I'm going to say yes, and also way to ask me to marry you I guess?

This exact thing happened to me. I'm currently playing the Roomies household, and Zoe is dating Johnny Zest. Johnny said he found a ring in Zoe's bag and asked what he should say. I told him to make his own decision. He didn't like that response but it's too soon for an engagement for them. They've only been dating 3 sim weeks, and I at least want to make it through my first rotation before they even think about marriage.

But that means you left it up to him. If you don’t want them getting engaged I would think you’d want to respond with the “No” option.

Yeah, I did leave it up to him because it was too soon. He didn't really like that response. He basically said "Thanks for nothing." I didn't want to say no because I do plan on them getting engaged but not yet.

What I meant by it being the exact same thing was my sim got a call from her boyfriend about her. They don't even live together right now.

I could be wrong but answering “no” doesn’t mean they can’t get engaged later under your control. But giving him the option to do what he wants leaves the chance they’ll get engaged on their own. At least that’s how I interpret how this stuff works! Let us know what happens!

@babajayne, It will be a while before I get back to Johnny. From what I can tell, nothing happened, apart from the above mentioned reaction.
