My sims keep using mean interactions when talking with their partners. I don't know if anyone else is having this problem but it started after the most recent update.
Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title
Please keep threads on topic. Use the following threads for mischief and romance:
Since Adventure Awaits, my sims are being mischievous/mean and/or starting fights with their partner. Never happened before, but it's now their first option when autonomously socialising with each other. If you aren't watching them closely, they end up as enemies very quickly.
My sims keep fighting autonomously all the time.
I am a basegame player and I don't have mods. Ever Since the latest update my sims autonomously fight out of no where. No mean or mischievious interactions.
I am trying so hard to build friendships back up and even if my sims are best friends they get into a physical fight and despise each other immediately. I AM TIRED OF IT!

crinrict is there some info I can provide on this one to help? I provided a save file for the devs to look at, I thought that's what was needed.
I am happy to provide that file again or a different save file from the other save where this was happening regularly to me if it helps. I'd love to see this one get some traction in getting resolved since sims autonomously being mean to each other (and especially fighting) has such a negative effect on their relationships and once a sims bar is deep in the red it can be very hard to fix (and many newer players might not even know how since the easiest, non cheating, fix isn't intuitive - i.e. don't let them talk just have them spam friendly group socials like dancing together or playing chess over and over)
I have mine fighting as well. They're both soulmates, with the companion trait. Been working so hard with them. That's usually the first aspiration I work on when they get together. Well it was all good up until a couple of months ago. Then while they were chatting I noticed a mischief interaction pop up on the side. Then it snowballed from there. The mean interactions started popping up "yell at", "insult" then they got into a knock down drag out. Even after I'm clicking to cancel so much I nearly pounded my mouse through the desk!. One thing I've noticed is their random flirting. But if they're soul mates and companions, married, with kids and hardly argued before or disliked any interaction, why are they randomly flirting with everyone? Once I left my Sims to build up another family. When I left them they had maxed out on friend and love meter. I came back and in that time half the friend meter halfway low and the love meter was maxed red. I have 3 families i work on and over the course of a few months was in chaos, one fam I had were doing great then when I checked back in they were divorced and hated each other. Like what's the deal? Please fix! If anyone has any insight, your help would gladly be appreciated. Thank you.
I'm having this same issue since the latest patch. There was a patch maybe a year ago (???) that triggered these same mean interactions between my amazingly compatible sims -- now their relationship is ruined 😭.
My female sim is autonomously insulting and fighting her husband for no reason. They have amazing compatibility as well as high friendship and romance bar, but for no reason she will always have insult interactions in queue. I know I can cancel it but it’s annoying how it’s always just them. My other couple sims are okay with no mean interactions.
The same thing has been happening to me in Del Sol Valley. I have a married couple that has full friendship and romance bars that will randomly fight, despise each other after and then still be flirty.
I've had this happen in 2 different households (playing rotationally), so at first I just thought it was because one of the sims has the mean trait. But he was gently flirting with his crush (he's a teen), and then out of nowhere, they autonomously started fighting.
The 2nd time this happened, I had a sim with the snob trait (so nothing nasty) do the same thing with a sim they were attracted to (and he was attracted to her), and after some gentle flirting, they burst into an autonomous fight.
So I'm adding my experiences to this thread.
my narried sims keep fighting each other for no reason then they despise each other
