Just as the title says, which Maxis-made sims do you want your sim to fall in love with. So far, I only have two.

For my male:
Petunia Wan - Though I need to kill her hubby or break em up. Grr!
Young-Adult Bella Bachelor

For females:
Don Lothario, which is good since my two girls are in the River one...

Same here. But they just got a baby, so my Sim will have to find another sweetheart. Btw, in the German version she is called Paula Wan. :D
Maybe Bella Bachelor (Bella Junggesell in the German version), Emma Hatcher or Madison Van....I don't know her last name.^^
Emma and Madison don't look that good (the faces, not the fact that they are a bit chubby, chubby woman can be beautiful too), but as long as my Sim likes them it is ok. :D

I had my Sim in Riverview fall in love with Jon Lessen they are now married with a toddler boy- Pete

I haven't really found any that I find super appealing, and the sim I'm playing hasn't been impressed by any of the guys! That's kind of depressing because my sim hook ups are generally based on who my sims seem to really like and I'd like her to at least get a boyfriend. Maybe I'm not doing the social interactions right.

I had my first sim marry Christopher Steel. He was a great husband made beautiful sons.

Imho Pauline Wan is not pretty at all... That said, I can't find pretty women in the game, at least not in the first generation. In Sims2 they were prettier, just remember Dina Caliente, she looked as if she didn't even use make up but she was so pretty, wow :).

As for men, I disliked all of them, too, except Hank Goddard. Such a sweetie! His son turned out to be even more handsome :)

Yeah, it's Pauline, not Petunia... oops.

Hank is the guy she's married too. I really don't want to have to kill him, but I think my sim really wants to get with Pauline.

They weren't married in my game... Or maybe they were? I don't know, in my game Pauline was called his "partner", maybe that means that she's his wife. I just asked him to break up with her, and he said ok and broke up with her. You don't have to kill anybody.

I wonder what's good about her :) Hank Goddard's son ended up befriending Pauline's daughter in my game (accidentally, they became friends at school, then he brought her home), and her daughter looks just like Pauline herself. Dunno, nothing great imho, she's unusual but not pretty.

She's also very hard to get with, especially with my sim's working schedule. I call her after work and she can't come over till 9:00. Well, usually they leave for the night at 12:00, so until I can do "stay the night" and have her accept it... not much to do with her. The best I was able to do was invite her to a party and focus on her. She's a very busy sim!

Babahara
22nd Jun 2009, 07:27 PM
She works in the evening, so if you have a normal job, that's going to be difficult. Did you learn enough about her character, though, and already have an idea what her lifetime wish may be? It's the same as Hank's, horribly enough, hehe. Might be not a good idea for a wife. At least I kicked Hank out right after he made a baby for me :)

This can be easily remedied with 10,000 Lifetime points. So it isn't much of a worry.

Inviting to parties seems to help, and if I can get her to stay the night at times it will help too.

My male sim drew Hank as a partner in the Law Enforcement career and with nearly zero interference from me they fell in love. ^_^ the only thing I did was get them to best friend status, and then seemingly overnight at work Hank changed to love interest! Now, I don't mind gay sims, but my Simmie already had a boyfriend! Who was also best friends with Hank & his wife! Awkward, right? Oh Sims, how I love your awkward social interactions. :jest:

Well I didn't feel like "cheating" this way with Hank, because he had a personality that was too fitting for his lifetime wish. Changing it wouldn't feel realistic, in life you can't expect such guys to change. Besides, it was such a drama! ;)

Btw if you take your time Wan will advance in her career and her hours will become even later. Although sims never seem to advance quickly in their careers in the game, unfortunately. It's pretty silly when you have a boss at work who's 5 promotions lower that you... They should've make it possible for others to get promotions and reassign a new boss imho.

And WOW, I didn't know that sims could fall in love at work, without your interference! I wonder why it happened, my sims never even flirt autonomously. What traits does your sim have?

And my sim was also in LE, but Hank was his boss... Pretty silly lol, when my sim reached the top of the career Hank not only remained her boss, but he even managed to get a demotion (as an NPC, I already kicked him out by that point).

I didn't like any of the first generation females in Sunset Valley at all, so I made my own. She hooked up with her then boss, Gage Briody, who turned out be a cheating man whore who fathered over 40 children with various women all over town. He prefers the married ones.

In my town, Pauline Wan and Hank Goddard are very fat. Did they start out that way? Bella Bachelor autonomously moved in with them when she grew up to a YA for some reason. Bella's probably the best looking Maxis female in all of Sunset Valley. Her face has the least fatty pudding.

In Riverview, I like the adult Betty Simovitch best. I think my creepy thug sim, Zeeblewat (in my avatar), might hook up with her. Poor thing, Zeeblewat is a real creep. :)

In my town they were ok until they turned from YAs to adults. I didn't check on Pauline, but Hank suddenly became fat.

Bella's probably the best looking Maxis female in all of Sunset Valley. Her face has the least fatty pudding.
Maybe it's my game settings, but in my game she looks really horrible... I hoped to play her until I saw her. Do you have a screenshot of her taken in your game maybe?

I can get one tonight if I remember. :) She probably looks the same, I think I was just getting tired of seeing every single female sim, including the skinny twigs, with fat pudgy faces and big chins so it made Bella's slimmer looking face look good to me in contrast. I don't mind fat pudgy faces on fat pudgy sims, but I got tired of every female in town having that look regardless of weight.

Ummm....he's good, over emotional, excitable, computer whiz and genius. (I gave you the wrong traits the first time, lol. I've made so many sims this weekend I don't remember them all anymore)

Also, I use the awesomemod hack and when my Sim got a promotion to a level higher than his current boss (who was some chick I don't remember her name) he was assigned a new boss.

Probably you're right... But still her face was so plain, I think lower game settings are at work here. I can't play on highest unfortunately, don't want to kill my videocard, especially in such summer heat...

Haha. Well, maybe then it was Hank who was flirty towards your sim, there's nothing in your sim that would suggest flirty behavior. Well, unless awesomemod somehow causes this :)

Oh and I'm amazed that awesomemod reassigns bosses. I didn't need it before but now I'm going to get it, I think ;)

Pauline Wan is the only one that I ever bothered with; she entered happily into my first (and so far, only) same-gender relationship of the game.

The rest of the families I've made have been couples I made inside CAS. Sometimes I wonder what kind of ideas they had when they made these repulsive pre-mades.

I actually installed awesomemod AFTER hank & aaron fell in love, lol. It's really funny b/c Aaron keeps rolling wants to hug Hank romantically at the same time Marc (Aaron's live in boyfriend) rolls wants to invite Hank over. But, i don't want to deal with jealousy, so I usually send one or the other away, lol.

My male sim fell in love with Gunther Goth without ever having any romantic interactions with him at all. He is a newly created sim that I had make friends with a lot of the other characters and I used the testingcheatsenabled true to make those friendships into best friend status. Gunther was his first best friend but with a few of the younger best friends guys, I had had my sim ask if they were single which is under the romantic options in the menu (I don't know why because anyone would ask if your friend was married, I'd think). I did plan on my sim to be gay but I never planned on him to all of a sudden wish to have his first kiss with Gunther. Which I granted, and then he preceded to want to woohoo with Gunther, which was a little tougher to grant but I did it. But I really want Mortimer to hurry and grow up, since I'm having my sim eat ambrosia to stay young so that eventually I could pair him and Mortimer up. I don't want my sim to be a home wrecker and break up the Goth family.

That said, in my first game I had one of the sons of my CAS Sim marry Racheal McIrish, daughter of River McIrish and Christopher Steel.
She looked quite lovely, but had the "Mean Spirited" trait wich made getting to know people with her very hard. She bacame a very loving mother when the twins were born tough. ;)

In Riverview, I'm pretty partial to Billy Caspian. I haven't hooked him up with anyone yet, though I'm thinking Betty Simovitch would be a good choice.

In Sunset Valley, I'm liking Cycl0n3 Sw0rd. He could start a bloodline of computer geeks, all with 1337 names.

There's a handywoman named Tuesday Sears in one of the neighborhoods, and her name alone makes me want to marry her to someone! A woman with the name Sears who makes a living out of repairing broken appliances is just too delicious to pass up. She's decent-looking as well, which is a plus.

He lives in a house (I think it's a 5 bedroom one) with 3 other people. One of his roommates is Stiles McGraw and I think another is Hannah. In the evenings, before the house icons stop showing on the map view, mouse over all the occupied houses and you will find out which people live where and who they live with.

A word of warning about our good friend Cycl0n3 Sw0rd, he has the "Inapropriate" trait which can wreak havoc on a good relationship. If you do want your Sim to hook up with him, get him a midlife crisis or suffer the consecuences. ;)

A warning about Cycl0n3 Sw0rd... one of my CAS sims had a baby girl with him. The baby got Cycl0n3's nose. She has now grown into a teen and I think Cycl0n3's nose doesn't look very good on a girl.

In Riverview, I like the adult Betty Simovitch best. I think my creepy thug sim, Zeeblewat (in my avatar), might hook up with her. Poor thing, Zeeblewat is a real creep. :)

Betty Simovitch is very cool, also her mom (whom I have kept at adult age by giving her ambrosia). These two are my dude's most important squeezes I guess. I would think that Lydia Pearl might be a good match for your thug. She is a klepto (never stolen anything from me, though) and a party animal.

The funniest thing I've ever seen in a Sims game, I was just blown away:

Lydia Pearl gets up in the morning after sleeping over, goes downstairs and turns on the stereo and starts dancing alone to the music, which she very often does first thing when she wakes up. My guy is in the kitchen area which is at the back of the house, the windows out to the front porch are directly across, on the other side of her. She's dancing in her small white undies (with a tank top) and I move my guy a little toward her so he's watching her from behind and this is where I have the camera because I'm also watching her butt while she's dancing in her undies.

Out on the porch comes the paperboy and drops the paper in the usual spot, he turns and is looking through the window, right at her. He isn't doing peep through window, he's standing on the spot as if he's waiting for me to come out and chat. And he's waiting...and waiting...he doesn't move, doesn't move his eyes, he's staring right at her. He was there for 15 at least, maybe 20 sims minutes, maybe a bit longer: watching this grown woman dance in her undies. Then he turned and left as normal; my guy had better things to do than chat with the paperboy...

Ohhh! LOL okay. I had my Sim Aaron autonomously fall in love with Hank (a Maxis sim who was his partner in LE) at work. It was so odd. It might be a bug or something though, that messed with relationship status (as at about the same time I had the game completely remove family relationships from another family)

Well people mention both names.. So I guess hatch is his son, maybe developers made a special pool of names for his offspring, to keep them sounding l337...

And thanx for the warning, I'll keep that in mind if I run into more of his offsprings. Hatch died yesterday in my game. :)
