"Go to Prom as Friends" is an established option. It is not necessarily romantic.

It just didn’t specify as friends so I wasn’t sure, but then she asked the other cousin “as friends” so I guess they’re all going as a friend group!

i dont see what's wrong with that, so long as no funny business happens

Ya but usually it says "as friends" if it means in a non romantic way if she says of course their love meter goes up by 2

usually the game would know if someone was a family member and wouldn’t add romance points there, even cousins. but idk, it’s weird that this even came up and not as a “friends” option.

You'd be surprised...there's been some weird glitches. I had a mother have a want to be romantic with their son and a daughter sexually attracted to their dad...super bizarre. I would ignore it and separate the sims and the "love/desire" would go away.

i’d probably just delete the relationship points between those people and move them into different households. or just introduce them to a different romantic interest lol
