[LS] Sim who has never been heartbroken died of broken heart

I currently have love struck expansion on PC and the game is most up to date. I am playing as a poly sim whose romantic boundaries are all set to not triggering jealousy. Whenever my sim does anything physical with any other sim, she keeps getting the notification that she needs to avoid any messy break ups etc. If she breaks up with a sim, she has also gone so much as to die of total despair. There is no pre-warning for this. She just randomly dies of heartbreak.

  • My sim is dying of a broken heart when they shouldn't.  I am doing serial romantic aspiration.  I am doing you can call reserve 100 baby or knock up the townies.  My sim has the uncommited trait.   The romantic boundaries are set to no jealousy.   I had this problem since lovestruck.  New game play is with a fairy sim.   My sim goes on a blind date and dies after woohoo or at end of date.  Game should either have a toggle or smart enough to know with either the uncommitted trait, serial romantic aspiration or jealousy selections in create a sim that they can't die of a broken heart. 

  • I'm having this problem too! I have a sim who is dating/woo-hooing around and while romancing someone she gets a notification that says "Nadya is feeling the negative effects of love and is truly suffering. Something is approaching..." despite not having any negative romantic interactions. After the notification she also gets a sad moodlet that says "Sorrow (From Broken Heart)". Luckily I have UI Cheats so I just cheat the moodlet away and she hasn't died but I know not everyone uses mods!

    EDIT: Just wanted to add that this sim also has all of her jealousy triggers set to "no" so I wonder if that's related?

  • Since the new update sims keep dying of a broken heart despite never getting their heart broken 

    No mods, Windows, HP laptop

    helloimbert​ Beat by beat, I’ve experienced the same issue as you described! I had no idea it was a death by heartbreak incoming — and how could I?, there were no unsuccessful romantic interactions at all taking place!

    Even with a different Sim that’s monogamous, he’s having this sorrow moodlet after perfect dates and no negative interactions. The one thing that might be causing this, and I’m spitballing here, is that his partner, Don Gooseman, gets sad or uncomfortable.

  • This is a horrible bug that completely destroys the game for me. I am playing a sweet, cute girl, living alone in her appartment. She dates a lot. Has her jealousy turned off. Only dates girls who are either single or in open relationships. I make sure that all her partners have their jealousy turned off, too. And her partners' partners (if there are any), too.

    Silke is super sweet and caring, makes sure to cook and do activities with her partners, gives them friendly advice, asks about their interests. She never makes any promises she might not be able to keep (no promies of eternal love, etc.) She really goes out of her way not to hurt anyone. The green bar is always at least as big as the pink bar. She's never mean or aggressive. She never gets rejected because she's so very sweet and gentle with her approach.

    In other words she has super healthy, very caring dating habits. And still she keeps dying from broken heart. Constantly. It makes zero sense. The game is unplayable this way for me, so it seems I have to un-install Lovestruck and start a new game, leaving behind all four households with 23 sims total (the other three households have been started before I bought Lovestruck). Not going to buy any more mods until this bug is fixed, because I am not paying money to have my game ruined.

    Successful interactions kill you just the same. Playing a character who has zero unsuccessful interaction. And keeps dying after every woohoo, no matter with whom (she did a lot of them I admit).
