[LS] Cupid Corner Matches Spawn with Different Age & Gender on Date

See attached pics (I had originally reported this on Reddit.)

I have a young adult female Sim who's exclusively looking for young adult males on Cupid's app.

So she finds Giovanni and adds him to her contacts.

However, once I check Giovanni's profile in her contacts, he's now listed and appears as an elderly woman.

I play on a notebook with Windows, no mods whatsoever. Feel free to select tags and/or let me know if this should be merged somewhere else because me searching didn't accomplish much.

Thanks in advance for your attention.

    Oh, sorry, I don't think I never got notified of this reply. I'll try to follow instructions when I can.

  • I want to clarify that I never got around providing a save because by the time I had figured I had to do it, and how, I had moved on so much with the game that I couldn't figure out which households had been affected and where they were. Sorry about that. I am also using the Cupid's app way less so I can't really comment on whether or not the issue is gone. I did at some point suspect that at least part of the problem could have "simply" come from a corruption in the name database (so that feminine names were assigned to males or viceversa), but this is a wild speculation on my part.

    I have a similar issue.

    I married a gallery pick from cupid's corner.  He was normal, but then he developed a female voice (despite it being male in CAS and on our original date) and when he aged up to an Elder he sometimes appears as a young adult again (this may have happened when he was an adult, but I never noticed as they look the same).  I originally thought I forgot to age him up, so I made another cake, but he can't blow out the candles because he is an Elder already, even though he appears as a young adult (although sometimes he still has the grey hair...sometimes).  If you go into CAS, he is an elder. In live mode, he's a young adult.

    Honestly, at this point I can't wait for him to die.  It's weird inviting your elderly father over for your kids B-Day, only to have him appear younger than you and talk like a woman.  I will no longer use Cupid's Corner to find partners, and it was literally the only reason I bought the pack.  I will go back to the "old ways": find a household of singles on the gallery, add them to my town, then see who I meet and connect with in the world.  So irritated I ever bought Love Struck - it's ruining/breaking up all my relationships because we didn't show affection for one day AND any Cupid's Corner picks end up bugged!
