CAS RELATIONSHIPS NOT SELECTING

I did use a different family to test it out, (removed all mods/cc) and it didn't work either. Alas, I did a simple fix (don't know why I didn't think of it before) but I had to make the sims get a divorce. Of course, just doing the divorce somehow didn't work alone because exiting my game afterward and reloading; they were still married. So I had to make them get a divorce and use MCCC to make them completely forget one another and then I had to use MCCC relationship settings to adjust the relationship to how I wanted it to be initially. Once I saved, exited and reloaded, the sims were no longer married and did not have the newlywed buffs. I tried to do the same to the test family without using MCCC, and the divorce alone did not work, reloading make them married again.
