Fanon:Eileen Tinsley

Eileen Beverly Tinsley is a sim residing in Belladonna Cove with her husband, Dalton. She is good friends with her ex-boyfriend Mitch.

She is the daughter of Beverly and George Tinsley. She is also the cousin of Jacob and Kevin Tinsley.

Early Life
Eileen was born in Desiderata Valley to her parents Beverly and George Tinsley. As a child, she was described as curious and inquisitive, but still reserved. She was also a dedicated student.

Freshman Year
Eileen arrived at Académie Le Tour, upon which she met Dalton Chandler, and the two soon became fast friends. She saw something in him; his carefree personality made a good foil for her sometimes indecisive nature. Dalton started dancing with her at a party and the two kissed and started dating soon after. Things with him just seemed new and exciting, as Eileen had never had a boyfriend before.

Sophomore Year
As college went on, things were good. Her relationship with Dalton blossomed, she was getting high marks, and she found a friend in her dormmate, Melissa. The couple even managed to get away to a hidden campsite in Three Lakes, where they first exchanged "I love yous". However, Eileen hit a snag in her relationship: Dalton's ex, Kendra Aubrey had recently arrived at college. At first, she was fine with the two hanging out. But she noticed how flirty Kendra seemed toward him, even though Dalton never made a move. She tried to be okay with it, but her jealousy got the best of her. To her apprehension, she and Dalton broke up. The following semester, she changed her major to mathematics. During this time, her cousins Kevin and Jacob had started college. Eileen and Jacob became close, like the brother she never had.

Eileen slept on it that night, and decided to apologize to Dalton later, maybe see if they could salvage their relationship. She figured she'd do it at a frat party he was hosting, although Kendra also showed. Eileen gravitated towards Dalton; they never wanted to break up in the first place. But Kendra kept butting in, trying to grab his attention. She never got the opportunity to apologize. Kendra quickly pulled him away and tried to kiss him. A distraught Eileen left, before she could see that Dalton rejected her. She began avoiding her ex, assuming her suspicions about him and Kendra were all too true. Melissa saw what happened and was able to explain to her friend. A few days after her talk with Melissa, Eileen called up Dalton apologizing for avoiding him and her jealousy over Kendra. The two agreed to be friends for the time being.

One day while out shopping in Belladonna Cove, she met and hit it off with Mitch Shaw. Seeing an opportunity to try to put all the Dalton/Kendra drama behind her, her and Mitch soon began dating. With her and Dalton both seeing other people, they decided to have a double date. But it was revealed that Mitch used to be married to Dalton's girlfriend, Jeanette. A few days later, she met with Mitch for a talk. The two decided it would be best to break up: they both admitted to being into other people and although they got along, there just wasn't that spark she had with Dalton.

Junior Year
After she passed her finals and entered her junior year, Eileen decided to take a break from dating. She became more interested in learning and math. Drama still found its way into her life. During a visit, Jacob was telling Eileen about a girl he met, none other than Kendra Aubrey. They were dating, and although things were awkward at first, Eileen saw that they were good together and was happy for them.

Dalton later came out as bi, and surprised Eileen with the revelation that he had been dating his friend, Zeb. Them being open caused Eileen to question her own sexuality, and she realized that she was also bi. She thought about Melissa, how deeply she admired her even before they were close friends. While she and Melissa experimented a little, they never became a couple since Eileen wasn't looking to date anyone. But she also realized she still has some residual feelings for Dalton, who she kept at a distance following all the drama with Mitch and Jeanette. Eileen decided that if she ever found herself in a relationship like that again, she wouldn't screw it up. She started reading up on anger management and couples counseling in her spare time.

Senior Year
Senior year came in the blink of an eye, and Eileen and Dalton started hanging out again. The two picked up right where they left off - friendship wise at least. But there was still that undeniable spark between them. Soon the two decided to give it another shot, a do-over. They took things slow and began offically dating once again. Things with the two were going well once again. This time, they began discussing their future, agreeing that they'd eventually marry. Eileen suggested "why wait?" They could have a long engagement. It felt right, and Dalton proposed soon after. The pair was now engaged.

Eileen graduated with a degree in mathematics.

Adulthood
After graduation, Eileen and Dalton got an apartment together in Belladonna Cove. Their friends Melissa and Scott visited with some surprising news: they had been dating for awhile. The two soon got engaged, and Eileen agreed to let Melissa move in with them while she planned her wedding to Scott. For awhile the Tinsley residence was a busy place as Dalton and Eileen hurried to put the finishing touches on their fast approaching wedding with limited income (as both were struggling to find work), all while Melissa was wrapped up in planning her own wedding. She shopped with Melissa to find a cheap dress, and they kept the ceremony small and intimate, opting to have the reception at their apartment complex. Soon the two were married and embarked on their honeymoon, staying at a hidden campsite in Three Lakes - the very same one where they'd exchanged I love yous 3 years prior.
