In The Sims 4, just like in real life, relationships ebb and flow. Sims can be friends, fall in love, date, get engaged, or marry. To reach each relationship level, they need a high enough romance or friendship status.
For instance, proposing marriage requires at least 40% friendship in addition to romance. But even Sims can fall out of love.
If you don’t want your Sims to break up, here’s what you can do to help them fall back in love.
How Do You Make Your Sims Fall In Love Again?
Improving Friendship
In The Sims 4, rekindling romance starts with rebuilding a strong friendship.
Friendly interactions can help mend fences and set the stage for a new romance chapter.
Start with basic friendly interactions like “Chat,” “Ask About Day,” or “Discuss Interests”.
Participate in activities that both Sims enjoy. It could be anything from playing chess to watching TV together.
If there were past conflicts, use the “Apologize” interaction to acknowledge and move past them.
Compliments can also go a long way and make a difference in mending a relationship.
Romantic Gestures
After laying a foundation of friendship, it’s time to spark the romance again.
Begin with light flirting. Regular compliments play a crucial role. Complimenting a Sim’s appearance can make them feel appreciated.
A classic romantic gesture like giving a rose can significantly boost the romance level.
When the time feels right, have your Sim confess their feelings.
A successful romantic interaction often depends on the Sims’ mood and environment. Make sure both Sims are in a positive mood.
You can use various objects that put Sims in a Flirty mood to speed up the process.
Healing Sentiments
Negative sentiments can fade over time. Give Sims space and let time heal the emotional wounds. Positive and friendly interactions can speed up the process.
If a Sim cheats, it hurts the relationship a lot. The other Sim will feel very angry for a long time and won’t trust them.
Fixing this takes a lot of work and time. You have to be very patient and keep doing nice things for the other Sim.
Repairing this requires extra effort and patience.
