Greet

Two Sims high-fiving

Players can have members of a household Sim Greet visitors that come to their lot. Few interactions are available with the visitor until the visitor is greeted. In The Sims, each visitor has to be greeted individually, and a visitor can not be asked to leave until he or she has been greeted; this changed in The Sims 2. Before The Sims 3, greeting them would also invite them into the home. With The Sims 3, Sims can talk to visitors but they are not allowed inside unless the "Invite Inside" interaction is used.

The Sims: Hot Date, and later expansion packs for The Sims, allows a player to select from several possible social interactions when one adult Sim greets another. Which interactions are available, and whether or not one will be accepted, depends on the relationship between the two Sims. It is not unusual for greeting interactions to become available before they are likely to be accepted. This is not present in The Sims 2.

In The Sims 2: University, cheerleaders and mascots do not need to be greeted, and will simply walk into a residence regardless of their relationship (if any) with any of the Sims living there. The "Best Friends Forever" relationship introduced in The Sims 2: FreeTime allows an an autonomous "far away greet" interaction. Often, a visitor who is "best friends forever" with a Sim in a household will not even need to be greeted after arriving on a lot, and will simply walk in.

A special greeting or gesture is a social interaction that is available in The Urbz: Sims in the City, The Sims 2 and The Sims 3. Gestures were introduced in The Sims 2: Bon Voyage with each exotic location having their own gesture. While on vacation, Sims can learn the location's gesture from the locals. Apartment Life offers more based on Social Groups similar to The Urbz: Sims in the City. The Sims 3 allows the player various ways of "introducing" their Sim based on their Charisma skill and traits.

In The Sims 2, two Sims with the Grilled Cheese aspiration will greet or say goodbye with a short conversation about grilled cheese.
