Social interaction

Social interactions are any actions between two or more Sims in The Sims Series. They will either raise or lower relationship scores between the active Sims and this can result in unlocking more interactions to choose from.

Interactions with a lightning bolt means that that Sim is attracted to the other.+ It will only appear if there is a attraction defined for the two Sims. This will make certain social interactions available earlier in the relationship, and make it easier for all interactions to pass. Conversely, if two Sims are incompatible, they will have negative chemistry, and actions will fail more often.
