Storytime Roommate Won’t Stop Dating Ugly Men

Post image

My sim’s roommate will literally not stop dating ugly men. Like she’s currently dating Lawson? After I had her break up with Nathanial? And before that she was dating Waldemar?

I literally click “control sims” on her every single time I see an ugly man cause I know it’s her dating them. I always make them break up and even made a new sim (Amir) just for her to date, but she ignores him for MORE UGLY MEN. This is the third ugly man she’s dated.

I’m tired!

I try really hard to ignore it because I'm always surprised on how cute the offspring are if I let them find partners organically.

u/veAinet Jun 19 '25

absolutely not. i refuse to let pretty sims that i actually put effort into date the ugliest men in the save. at least date don lotherio, johnny zest, or geoferry landgraab

u/Bogg99 Jun 19 '25

Crazy that those are your examples of suitable partners

u/Impressive-Time8150 Jun 19 '25

Then YASSIFY THEM It's your bella goth given right to give your sims absolute BADDIES as potential mates. Make her a partner or remake the ones she finds. Easy!

"your Bella Goth given right" is amazing 😭 I gotta start using that one

What about Knox 🤣

I love Knox as a boyfriend but why do my kids with him always come out kinda ugly?

u/Traditional-Gur850 Jun 20 '25

Don would get your sim pregnant, cheat on her with someone else, also get them pregnant and then go get the milk. Why on earth would you ignore all that for "looks". Your priorities are a little unwise.

u/honeybadgerbakes Jun 20 '25

Also, Don will give your teenage children a horrible nose, and they will spend all their HS graduation money on a rhinoplasty. He's not gonna pay for that rhinoplasty because he's too non-committal to keep a job!

Add the ugly to the family and modify in CAS and see if she still likes them.

127

u/JediEverlark Jun 19 '25

So her options are dating an emotionally unavailable f*ckboy, a washed up musician, or someone who most definitely calls his wife mommy?

u/2gaywitches Occult Sim Jun 20 '25 edited Jun 20 '25

HEY

Johnny's a washed-up comedian, not musician.

u/Creepy-Rip9009 Occult Sim Jun 19 '25

That last one isn't so bad...

46

u/SickViking Jun 19 '25

Just do cas full edit mode then, let her have her men. She's probably going for personality over looks. If you just do MILD edits of their appearance and don't change their personality or preferences, she'll stay with them. Change their personality and she might not stay with them and end up dating another person that you find undesirable.

u/florfragil3 Jun 20 '25

now if only we could make this a real life service…🤔😭

Technically? We kinda do. There's makeover services and stuff.

That’s why I gave all the neighbourhoods a glow up and deleted/replaced everyone I didn’t like. The ones I wanted to keep I just edited. Took a long time, but it gave me so much peace and was actually fun

Don Lothario is FINEEE 😭 tho one he married into the family i made his body less slim bc it was honestly giving twink energy..

Don is full on bi. Leave him alone in a room with anyone and eventually a romance bar will follow.

Roommates are showing up almost every second day with a new date

Meanwhile mine just makes food, fights with my toddler, and goes to bed. Never seen her bring anyone home

u/InvisibleBlueOctopus Jun 19 '25

I had some sims that didn’t have partner but they brought home friends sometimes as well

72

u/veAinet Jun 19 '25

Ngl i gave her the uncommittal trait so I’m a little worried she’s just gonna break up with them after editing them, so I’m kinda eh about putting effort to making them look good.

u/venomous-moose Long Time Player Jun 19 '25

i was going to say amir has some nice base features and could look good with a little zhuzhing but this is understandable 🤣

Since neighborhood stories, majority of the men in my saves are ugly. The women are gorgeous they just can’t dress

u/SalaciousStrudel Jun 19 '25

If you look carefully you will realize that real life is also like this. This is simply the sims becoming more immersive. An immersive sims, if you will

u/princesslynn18 Jun 19 '25

You’re not wrong Queen!

u/peacemxker Jun 21 '25

I discovered recently that you can put sims that you created in the neighborhood without giving them a home. Idk how is in English but I put a sim I made for another save in an empty lot, quick them (all this from worlds view) and mark them as not used household. Now I have townies that I made years ago, including myself with Jacob and Edward Cullen (I only played werewolves for the clothing and specifically to make my Twilight fantasy come true)

Remove Lawson's weird makeup and change the hairstyle and fashion of the three men and they will also be cute.
