Sims 4 relationships stuck on "acquaintances"

Hello! I play 4 sim in a household. The problem is that 3 of my 4 sims can't become friends with each other, which i only noticed after having about 100 hours of gameplay invested into this save gam...

    Finaly i managed to solve this problem by doing the following:

    -testingcheats on
    -CAS.fulleditmode
    -Shift-clicked on my sim, edited his name to something else. pressed accept, this took a while, i almost thought the game froze up
    -Did the same for my other bugged sim
    -Now they got working ID's
    -typed in the relationship.destroy to reset all of their relationships one by one

    That's it, they can become friends with others now, and the FPS is stable 60 again, no more stuttering. Such an easy solution yet no one thought about it on other forums.
    Hope this helps for all those sad simmers !

Hello!
... playing with mods obviously


Please remove your mods. Reports in Bug forum are on vanilla games only.

    Ok, i disabled my mods, which were only objects, hairstyles and clothes, but the issue still stands.

    Whats more, after investigating it further, i noticed that the relationship only works between my 2 core sims, who were im playing since the base game. Relationship between them reads : Lovers, Best Friends, Engaged, Soulmates

    While on any other sim, it lists all of the relationship statues, while they remain only acquaintances. There are some NPC sims, who are in the relationship tab, with zero relationship, but listing all the relationship statuses under them. None of my sims can advance in any new relationships, and i tried to break up my 2 working sims to see what happens and they immediately get stuck on "acquaintances" status with 100% green bar.

    EDIT: After more investigation, my last working savegame where the relationships were working was 06/09/2016.
    Something happened after that date. Not sure if its related but if i load this save game my FPS is stable 60, while loading any savegame after this will drop it to an average 25-30 fps.

      Did you remove mods, then removed the relationship via cheat and tried to get it back up ?

        The cheat to remove relationship doesnt work, it does not do anything.
        Yes i have disabled mods, but mods have nothing to do with this, i edited my previous post, to include that i have actual save games where relationships were working (with the same mods)
        It must be some patch that origin forced me to install, i really want to fix this please, it takes all my will away to touch this game again if i cant fix it.

        EDIT: between the last fully working savegame, and the next one, i moved worlds.
        So right now i think the issue could have been there since a long time, it just didnt trigger until i moved my sims to another land.
        Is there any way to fix this ? The relationship.destroy cheat with IDs doesnt do a single thing.
