Romance

The Romance aspiration is one of the five (or 7, with Nightlife included) aspirations in The Sims 2. Romance Sims want to have as many lovers as possible, and they always want more! Romance Sims enjoy meeting new lovers, having affairs, and WooHoo.

Tips & Tricks

 * Sims with knowledge aspiration get along pretty badly with romance sims, as they have nothing in common and where a romantic sim might wish for a style of life with a lot of partners and social interactions, intellectual sims prefer to stay alone studying. It's like cold-hot, water-oil. They won't ever get along well.
 * If you want a Romance Sim to marry and not have their aspiration bar fall low, make their secondary aspiration family. You need The Sims 2 FreeTime to get a secondary aspiration.
 * Romance Sims won't have a bad memory of marrying a rich Sim, for obvious reasons.
 * It is never recommended--unless, of course, you want a challenge or some ugly marital drama--to marry a Romance Sim with a Family Sim, as their wants will clash. Family Sims want to get engaged and married, while Romance Sims normally fear engagement and marriage; as a result, an engagement/marriage between Romance and Family Sims will often greatly boost a Family Sim's aspiration while severely lowering the Romance Sim's. The Family Sim will want to have children and raise them carefully, and Romance Sims will wish to WooHoo, go on dates and find other lovers all the time. One example is Cassandra Goth and Don Lothario, and when Don leaves Cassandra the day of their union.
 * For these reasons, if you're looking to have a stable family, it's generally considered a poor strategy to have a Romance Sim marry. In order to keep their aspiration score high, they will effectively be required to cheat on their spouse.
 * Conversely, Fortune, Popularity, and (usually) Pleasure Sims make excellent spouses or roomies with Romance Sims.
 * When a Romance Sim falls in love with another Sim, they immediately gain a want to have multiple loves at once.
 * Romance Sims are unique for not wanting to get married, engaged, go steady and have babies. Non-Romance Sims usually want things like this (besides Pleasure, but even they won't fear it).
 * Similar to Pleasure Sims, a handful of Romance Sims actually want marriage. This is extremely unusual, probably the rarest Want a Romance Sim can possibly roll.
 * In rare cases, if someone (even a family type) has many children and is annoyed with them and has a low aspiration bar for two days or more, they will get Romance type wants (i.e. kiss someone, go on a date, flirt etc).
