Is it not possible to DRASTICALLY reduce how much strangers come up to you to talk and partake in your current conversations uninvited? You end up with a relationship panel crowded by strangers even...

Strangers in your conversation

Why has this not been addressed YEARS ago? This is one of the primary reasons I mostly build and rarely play. Trying to do anything in public with another sim is an exercise in constantly starting from scratch as strangers will butt into every attempt at conversation--and those stranger sims always get priority in queue for some reason, often causing other intentional activities to be tossed out of queue. And the great big heap of salt on the wound of pushy strangers is no matter how long a conversation they have insinuated themselves into goes on, my played sim/sims will get no relationship points with them because they were never formally introduced. Attempt to stop the conversation and force introductions? Always fails yet the conversations will continue with the introduction actions being kicked from queue while the conversations will go on and on unless I remove my sims. I never have sims propose in public venues because EVERY time I have tried in the past, some unplayed sim has injected themself into the moment and their desire to be rude, obnoxious Karens always overrides any intentional actions I instigate. As an introvert, one of the most enlightening moments of my life was when a friend told me I was allowed to tell pushy strangers who would not stop talking to me to eff off rather than stay locked away in my home all the time and I would like my sims to experience the same enlightenment.
