10/16/2020 - Updated with Russian Translation by Origamika. Thank you, Origamika!!!
Update 10/2020 - In this update, there have been a number of bug fixes for all the reactions included in this mod. The biggest change is to the reactions to cheating. Sims will no longer consider flirting to be "cheating." The base game's Flirty Spouse buff will still occur (meaning the sim's spouse will still react), but they will no longer declare their partners as cheaters when flirting. The Flirty sim's children will have new reactions if they see their parents flirting with other sims.
Also included, Portuguese Brazil translation by melqui1. Thank you, melqui1! (Working on learning the Sims 4 Translater so that translations can remain even as the mod updates)
Updated on 8/7/20 with Russian Translation Provided by Origamika. Thank you, Origamika!
Updates for 8/4/20:
- Fixes for Eco Lifestyle Patch Updates
- The feature for children reacting to their parent's cheating has been added back to the mod
- Autonomy for the confess to cheating interaction has been disabled by default since some users were experiencing an issue with the interaction being spammed repeatedly. A toggle has been added to the Realistic Reactions menu to turn on autonomy for Confess to Cheating.
- Fixes for various bugs
7/8/20: Updated with Russian Translation by Origamika and Chinese Translation by MMCCC
Updates for 7/1/20:
- Some coding used for testing was causing Sims to show "Cheated With" relationship, even if they have been monogamous. This has been corrected.
- Added toggles under the Realistic Reactions Menu to "Disable Flirty Spouse Cheating Reactions". With this option, the sims will still get the default game's flirty spouse buff, but will not get this mod's cheating buffs/interactions. Married/Partnered Sims will have to woohoo with others to be considered cheating
- When clicking on a Sim's partner/spouse/significant other, there is now an option under the Realistic Reactions Menu to "Remove Cheating Relationships With This Sim". This will remove the Cheated With and Unfaithful relationship bits.
Currently being worked on:
Adding autonomy and autonomy toggles
Options to turn on/off different parts of the mod you wish to use
Traits affecting reactions
New modules for the mod
The Realistic Reactions Mod:
The Realistic Reactions Mod for The Sims 4 is designed to overhaul how sims react to situations in the game. Currently, there are three categories included in this mod:
1. Cheating Overhaul
2. Overhaul to how Sims react when seeing family members fighting with one another
3. Sims reacting to teen pregnancy (if mods are installed to allow teens to get pregnant)
Due to the intensity of moodlets/buffs, you may wish to use with mods that disable emotional deaths. Previously, this mod was split into three individual modules. This has been cleaned up to now include one zip file containing one package and one script file, both of which should go in your Mods folder.
Please delete all previous Realistic Reactions files before installing this version! Due to updates in Mod Constructor, this version of the mod was completely rebuilt from the ground up, so all buffs from the previous version will be removed. Also, the current version is only available in English.
Changes made in the 6/23/20 Update:
- Combined all modules into one
- Added Toggles to turn on/off certain modules in the Realistic Reactions menu
- Update to fix LE's that were occurring from different aspects of the mod
- Autonomy for Confess to Cheating has been completely turned off. Sims will only confess if you select for Sims to do so
- Fixed accuracy so Sims should now only get cheating moodlets if they actually cheat
- New Interactions. For now, these do not have a toggle, but the next update will allow you to turn these interactions off if they do not want them in your game. The new interactions include a special menu for conversing with mixologists at the bar (similar to the one in The Sims 3), the ability to ask the parents of your bf/gf for their hand in marriage, and the ability for Sims with children to brag about them.
- The feature for children reacting to their parent's cheating is being perfected and has been removed (this will be added back in next update)
As always, this mod is being worked on and revised so thank you to everyone that has let error reports and mod suggestions in the comments!

Thank you to everyone that has downloaded the mod so far! Also, thank you to everyone that left suggestions in the comments. I've been working hard on this update and V3 contains the following changes:
Cheating Overhaul - Module 1
- Increased Buff Intensity: Buff weights for several buffs in the mod have been increased to 50. This should improve realism by making them weigh more than all of the sims buffs before the cheating occurred.
- Several bug fixes for engaged Sims: Romantic interactions between Sims engaged to one another was incorrectly triggering cheating buffs. This has been fixed.
- Support for WW : If you use the WW mod, Sims that WW with someone other than their partner will grant themselves and their partner buffs ( Both parties receive buffs if once catches the other in the act. If the partner doesn't witness the act, the cheating Sim will be able to confess to cheating).
- Support for LittleMsSam's SimDa Hookup Calls: If you use LittleMsSam's SimDa App Mod and a Sim with a spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend/fiancée accepts and goes through with a hookup call, they will be able to confess cheating to their partner.
- Reactions from the cheater and the person cheated on are now random: With this update, instead of Sims reacting the same every time, they now react in random ways - including embarrassed, sad, or stressed. Evil Sims may even get happy when cheated or angrily want revenge when cheated on.
- New Buffs: After consoling children that witnessed cheating, they will receive a new random lingering buff instead of being fine afterward
Sims Reacting To their Parents Fighting - Module 2
- An Individual Menu was added to all Sims, so the module can be disabled for individual Sims not in the active household.
Parents Reacting to Teen's Pregnancy - Module 3
- Parents will get interactions if their teen is pregnant and showing (if mods are used to allow teen pregnancy).
Description of V3 of Realistic Reactions
The Realistic Reactions Mod for The Sims 4 is designed to overhaul how sims react to situations in the game. It is split into modules so you can pick and choose which features you want in your game. Due to the intensity of moodlets/buffs, you may wish to use with mods that disable emotional deaths (I tested these mods without other mods and did not experience emotional deaths, but wanted to provide a disclaimer). Future updates will provide buff intensity options and autonomy controls.
The current modules are the Cheating Overhaul and the Children Witnessing Their Parents Fighting Overhaul
MODULE 1: Cheating Overhaul V3
In the current version of the game, when a married/dating/engaged sim gets caught cheating by their spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend/fiancée, their spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend/fiancée gets jealous for a period of time (they receive a +3 angry Flirty Spouse buff that lasts for up to 23 hours) and that's it. The cheating spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend/fiancée and the person they cheated with are happy from their romance and if the married/dating/engaged couple has children, there is no effect on the children at all. This fits with the cartoony nature of The Sims 4, but doesn't necessarily fit a more realistic play-style.
With the Cheating Overhaul module, if a sim cheats and is caught by their spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend or fiancée, the following will happen:
- The married/dating/engaged sim will receive a random buff (for example, they may become embarrassed, sad, or stressed, receiving a +50 embarrassed, sad, or stressed moodlet "Caught Cheating" that lasts for 24 hours).
- Their spouse will get a new +50 angry buff/moodlet "You're A Cheater" (in addition to the angry +3 Jealous Spouse buff the unmodded game already gives them). This +5 angry buff/moodlet "You're A Cheater" lasts for 2 days (it lasts for up to 8 days if you have roburky's Meaningful Stories installed). The intensity of the buff will be changed to give different options in an update).
- The sim that cheated with the married/dating/engaged sim will become embarrassed, receiving a +50 embarrassed moodlet "Caught Cheating With Married Sim" (for married sims) and "Caught Cheating with Taken Sim" (for dating and engaged sims) that lasts for 4 hours ( it lasts for up to 16 hours if you have roburky's Meaningful Stories installed).
- If the married/dating/engaged sims have children and they are present, the children will receive a +50 sad moodlet "Cheating in Household" if they are in the child/kid life stage. Teens-Elders that witness their parents cheating will receive a +50 angry version of the "Cheating in Household" moodlet. For both the kid and teen-elder versions, the buffs last until a special interaction is used.
This moodlet last until on of their parents use the "Console About Witnessing Cheating" interaction. After the interaction is used, their children (of any age) will no longer have the +5 sad/angry "Cheating in Household" moodlet/buff.
New interactions will unlock for the Household. Some can change or remove the buffs/moodlets they have received.
Those moodlets and interactions all happen when a sim is caught cheating, but what happens if an active sim cheats and isn't caught?
If a married/dating/engaged sim cheats but is not caught, both they and the person they cheat with are given hidden traits and buffs.
MODULE 2: Kids-Elders Witnessing Their Parents Fighting Overhaul V3
In the unmodded game, sims react to their parents fighting with each other as if they would to seeing anyone fight (the buffs the game gives them to show them to be either happy or embarrassed about their "friend" winning/losing the fight). This mod overhauls the sims' reaction to make them realistically react with sadness or anger after witnessing their parents fighting.
MODULE 3: Parents Reacting to Their Teen's Pregnancy
If you use mods to allow teens to get pregnant, this module will allow parents to react to the pregnancy once the teen's pregnancy starts showing. The interactions are Express Disappointment In Teen Pregnancy and Express Happiness in Their Pregnancy. Depending on the interaction used, both parties will receive +4 buffs of happiness, anger, or sadness. More to come with future updates.

This fits with the cartoony nature of The Sims 4, but doesn't necessarily fit a more realistic play-style.
With the Cheating Overhaul module, if a sim cheats and is caught by their spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend or fiancée, the following will happen:
- The married/dating/engaged sim will receive a random buff (for example, they may become embarrassed, sad, or stressed, receiving a +50 embarrassed, sad, or stressed moodlet "Caught Cheating" that lasts for 24 hours).
- Their spouse will get a new +50 angry buff/moodlet "You're A Cheater" (in addition to the angry +3 Jealous Spouse buff the unmodded game already gives them). This +5 angry buff/moodlet "You're A Cheater" lasts for 2 days (it lasts for up to 8 days if you have roburky's Meaningful Stories installed). The intensity of the buff will be changed to give different options in an update).
- The sim that cheated with the married/dating/engaged sim will become embarrassed, receiving a +50 embarrassed moodlet "Caught Cheating With Married Sim" (for married sims) and "Caught Cheating with Taken Sim" (for dating and engaged sims) that lasts for 4 hours ( it lasts for up to 16 hours if you have roburky's Meaningful Stories installed).
- If the married/dating/engaged sims have children and they are present, the children will receive a +50 sad moodlet "Cheating in Household" if they are in the child/kid life stage. Teens-Elders that witness their parents cheating will receive a +50 angry version of the "Cheating in Household" moodlet. For both the kid and teen-elder versions, the buffs last until a special interaction is used.
This moodlet last until on of their parents use the "Console About Witnessing Cheating" interaction. After the interaction is used, their children (of any age) will no longer have the +5 sad/angry "Cheating in Household" moodlet/buff.
New interactions will unlock for the Household. Some can change or remove the buffs/moodlets they have received.
For the married/dating/engaged sim that cheated:
- Under the Friendly interactions menu, the new interaction "Apologize for Cheating" will appear when clicking on your spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend/fiancée that you cheated on

Their spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend/fiancée will no longer have the embarrassed moodlet. It will be replaced with a +5 sad moodlet "Forgiven For Cheating" that lasts for 4 hours.

If the sims is a boyfriend, girlfriend, or fiancée, the interactions "Confront For Cheating With Your Romantic Interest" and "Fight For Cheating" will appear when clicking on the sim your boyfriend/girlfriend/fiancée cheated with.
For both of the married/dating/engaged sims if they have children:
- Under the Friendly interactions menu, the new interaction "Console About Witnessing Cheating" will appear when clicking on your children. Doing so will remove that child's +5 (sad moodlet for kids and angry moodlet for teen-elder) "Cheating in Household". If used with roburky's Meaningful Stories mod, there may be lingering sadness buff that appears (in my testing, the time varied from 1-2 hours).

This will remove the sim's angry moodlets and replace it them with a +5 sad moodlet "Forgave Spouse For Cheating" that lasts for 4 hours for married sims and a +5 sad moodlet "Forgave For Cheating" that lasts for 4 hours for dating and engaged sims.

Both sims will receive a hidden "Cheating Confession" trait.

After seeing their parents fighting, kids will receive +5 sad moodlet "Witnessed Parents Fighting" that lasts for two hours.

VERSION TWO IS NOW OBSOLETE & REPLACED BY V3
MODULE 1: Cheating Overhaul
V2 Update (8/17/19) - A Lot of Changes
Thank you to everyone that has downloaded the mod so far! I've been working hard on an update and V2 contains the following changes:
Description of V2 of Realistic Reactions
The Realistic Reactions Mod for The Sims 4 is designed to overhaul how sims react to situations in the game. It is split into modules so you can pick and choose which features you want in your game. Due to the intensity of moodlets/buffs, you may wish to use with mods that disable emotional deaths (I tested these mods without other mods and did not experience emotional deaths, but wanted to provide a disclaimer). Future updates will provide buff intensity options and autonomy controls.
The current modules are the Cheating Overhaul and the Children Witnessing Their Parents Fighting Overhaul

- If you have the Get Famous Expansion, cheating and using any mean interactions from this mod such as Fighting or Taunting may result in reputation loss if other sims see you doing them.

- The married sim will become embarrassed, receiving a +4 embarrassed moodlet "Caught Cheating" that lasts for 24 hours

This +4 angry buff/moodlet "You're A Cheater" lasts for 2 days (it lasts for up to 8 days if you have roburky's Meaningful Stories installed). The intensity of the buff will be changed to give different options in an update).
- The sim that cheated with the married sim will become embarrassed, receiving a +4 embarrassed moodlet "Caught Cheating With Married Sim" that lasts for 4 hours ( it lasts for up to 16 hours if you have roburky's Meaningful Stories installed).
- If the married sims have children and they are present, the children will receive a +4 sad moodlet "Cheating in Household" that lasts until they age up to teen, unless a special interaction is used.
[spoiler]This moodlet appears whenever the children are around their parents until the parents use the "Console About Witnessing Cheating" interaction. After the interaction, the children will no longer have the +4 sad moodlet "Cheating in Household" moodlet/buff.
New interactions will unlock for the Household. Some can change or remove the buffs/moodlets they have received.
Those moodlets and interactions all happen when a sim is caught cheating, but what happens if an active sim cheats and isn't caught?
If a married sim cheats but is not caught, both they and the person they cheat with are given hidden traits and buffs.
MODULE 2: Children Witnessing Their Parents Fighting Overhaul
In the unmodded game, children react to their parents fighting with each other as if they would to seeing anyone fight (the buffs the game gives them to show them to be either happy or embarrassed about their "friend" winning/losing the fight). This mod overhauls the children's reaction to make them realistically react with sadness after witnessing their parents fighting.
In the current version of the game, when a married sim gets caught cheating by their spouse, their spouse gets jealous for a period of time (they receive a +3 angry Flirty Spouse buff that lasts for up to 23 hours) and that's it. The cheating spouse and the person they cheated with are happy from their romance and if the married couple has children, there is no effect on the children at all. This fits with the cartoony nature of The Sims 4, but doesn't necessarily fit a more realistic play-style.
With the Cheating Overhaul module, if a married sim cheats and is caught by their partner, the following will happen:
- The married sim will become embarrassed, receiving a +4 embarrassed moodlet "Caught Cheating" that lasts for 24 hours
- Their spouse will get a new +4 angry buff/moodlet "You're A Cheater" (in addition to the angry +3 Jealous Spouse buff the unmodded game already gives them). This +4 angry buff/moodlet "You're A Cheater" lasts for 2 days (it lasts for up to 8 days if you have roburky's Meaningful Stories installed). The intensity of the buff will be changed to give different options in an update).
- The sim that cheated with the married sim will become embarrassed, receiving a +4 embarrassed moodlet "Caught Cheating With Married Sim" that lasts for 4 hours ( it lasts for up to 16 hours if you have roburky's Meaningful Stories installed).
- If the married sims have children and they are present, the children will receive a +4 sad moodlet "Cheating in Household" that lasts until they age up to teen, unless a special interaction is used.
[spoiler]This moodlet appears whenever the children are around their parents until the parents use the "Console About Witnessing Cheating" interaction. After the interaction, the children will no longer have the +4 sad moodlet "Cheating in Household" moodlet/buff.
New interactions will unlock for the Household. Some can change or remove the buffs/moodlets they have received.
For the spouse that cheated:
- Under the Friendly interactions menu, the new interaction "Apologize for Cheating" will appear when clicking on your spouse that you cheated on
- Under the Mean interactions menu, the new interaction "Convince That Your Cheating Is Their Fault" will appear when clicking on your spouse that you cheated on. This will remove their +4 embarrassed moodlet "Caught Cheating".
For the sim that was cheated on:
- Under the Friendly interactions menu, the new interaction "Forgive for Cheating" will appear when clicking on your spouse. This will remove the sim's angry moodlets and replace it them with a +4 sad moodlet "Forgave Spouse For Cheating that lasts for 4 hours.
Their Spouse will no longer have the embarrassed moodlet. It will be replaced with a +4 sad moodlet "Forgiven For Cheating" that lasts for 4 hours.

The interactions "Confront For Cheating With Your Spouse" and "Fight For Cheating" will appear when clicking on the sim your spouse cheated with.
For both of the married sims if they have children:
- Under the Friendly interactions menu, the new interaction "Console About Witnessing Cheating" will appear when clicking on your children. Doing so will remove that child's +4 sad moodlet "Cheating in Household". If used with roburky's Meaningful Stories mod, there may be lingering sadness buff that appears (in my testing, the time varied from 1-2 hours).
For the sim that the married sim cheated with (if in the active household):
- Under the Friendly interactions menu, the new interaction "Apologize for Cheating With Their Spouse" will appear when clicking on the spouse of the person you cheated with.
- Under the Mean interactions menu, the new interaction "Taunt About Cheating With Their Spouse" will appear when clicking on the spouse of the person you cheated with. This will remove their embarrassed moodlet and give them the new interaction "Brag About Cheating With Married Sim" (this will not appear on the sim they cheated with and the spouse they taunted).
- Under the Friendly interactions menu, the new interaction "Apologize for Cheating" will appear when clicking on your spouse that you cheated on

Their Spouse will no longer have the embarrassed moodlet. It will be replaced with a +4 sad moodlet "Forgiven For Cheating" that lasts for 4 hours.
- Under the Mean interactions menu, two new interactions "Confront About Cheating" and "Fight For Cheating" will appear when clicking on your spouse.
The interactions "Confront For Cheating With Your Spouse" and "Fight For Cheating" will appear when clicking on the sim your spouse cheated with.
For both of the married sims if they have children:
- Under the Friendly interactions menu, the new interaction "Console About Witnessing Cheating" will appear when clicking on your children. Doing so will remove that child's +4 sad moodlet "Cheating in Household". If used with roburky's Meaningful Stories mod, there may be lingering sadness buff that appears (in my testing, the time varied from 1-2 hours).
For the sim that the married sim cheated with (if in the active household):
- Under the Friendly interactions menu, the new interaction "Apologize for Cheating With Their Spouse" will appear when clicking on the spouse of the person you cheated with.
- Under the Mean interactions menu, the new interaction "Taunt About Cheating With Their Spouse" will appear when clicking on the spouse of the person you cheated with. This will remove their embarrassed moodlet and give them the new interaction "Brag About Cheating With Married Sim" (this will not appear on the sim they cheated with and the spouse they taunted).
Those moodlets and interactions all happen when a sim is caught cheating, but what happens if an active sim cheats and isn't caught?
If a married sim cheats but is not caught, both they and the person they cheat with are given hidden traits and buffs.
Both sims will receive a hidden "Cheating Confession" trait. This will give the married sim a hidden "Cheating Confession" buff that lasts indefinitely and allows them to confess their cheating to their partner. The person cheating can confess to their spouse using the new interaction "Confess To Cheating" which will remove the hidden "Cheating Confession" trait and buff.
MODULE 2: Children Witnessing Their Parents Fighting Overhaul

After seeing their parents fighting, children will receive +4 sad moodlet "Witnessed Parents Fighting" that lasts for two hours (this buff may last for up to 4 hours if roburky's Meaningful Stories mod is installed).
