'''Romantic''' (Known as '''Act Romantic''' in ''The Urbz: Sims in the City'') is a type of [[social
In ''The Sims 2'' and later games, romantic socials will affect the [[gender preference]] of Sims who engage in them. The "Check Sim Out" interaction in ''[[The Sims 2: Nightlife]]'' can be used to rate a specific Sim for attraction. This may affect the feelings of not only the Sim initiating it, but the Sim being checked upon. Because of this, the Sim being checked upon may autonomously end up initiating flirty interactions with the Sim that was checking them out, usually provided they have a compatible chemistry.

In the revised relationship system introduced in ''[[The Sims: Hot Date|Hot Date]]'', Sims develop a crush relationship if the daily relationship is over 70 when the romance social ends. If the lifetime relationship is over 70 when the romance social ends, the relationship is changed to lover.
===The Sims 2===
Like in ''The Sims: Hot Date'', Sims get a crush relationship if their daily relationship is at 70 after doing a romantic social, and a love relationship if their lifetime relationship is at 70. Young adults{{Vgversion|TS2:U}}, adults, and elders can WooHoo with other young adults, adults, or elders of either gender that they have a crush on and are close to being in love with. Usually they will fall in love after WooHooing if they weren't already. Adult females and adult or elder males may Try for Baby with a Sim of the opposite gender to have a baby.
