Released with the expansion pack Nightlife, this option allows groups of friends to get out of the house, or just two Sims to get to know each other a little better.
Forming an Outing
Contacts will phone to ask if your Sim would like to go on an outing Downtown or you can ask other Sims to "Form Casual Group" under the "Ask..." option. You can also form a Casual Group with the phone.
Asking Sims on a Date
Sims can phone another Sim to ask them on a date and choose to go to a community lot, or ask them in person. If the Sim asks them in person, the date will start as soon as they accept.
A Sim can also ask the Gypsy Matchmaker to get them a date. The date starts as soon as she introduces them.
Time and Fun Meter
Each date or outing lasts 5 minutes but can be extended based on the amount of fun the Sims have. When the Sims arrive on a lot, a timer begins to count down. The fun meter starts in the center and measures how well the outing or date is going. The meter is divided and when your
fun rises above the divider you will be given more time.
You can choose to end the date or outing earlier.
