===Jealousy===
{{see also|Fury}}
Whenever<blockquote>:3Whenever a [[Sim]], who has a crush on or is in love with another Sim watches the latter partake in some romantic [[Interactions|interaction]] with another, jealousy occurs. In ''The Sims 2'', if ''[[Nightlife]]'' or later is installed, jealousy also triggers [[fury]]. This doesn't take into account whether or not the feelings are one-sided, which may be messy for unrequited crushes. If ''Nightlife'' or later is installed, and a Sim catches another Sim flirting with their partner, they will also be furious at their partner, regardless whether their partner rejects the flirt.</blockquote>The witnessing Sim often loses the crush or love marker, and his or her [[relationship]] with the cheater and the one he or she is cheating with plummets into the negative. If he or she doesn't know the other person, a "Met Sim" memory is added along with the affair and possible "Fell Out of Love" [[memories]]{{vgversion|TS2}}. This relationship drop enables breaking up, assuming the Sims were going steady, engaged, or married.

The cheated-on Sim may reject the cheater should they try to interact with them romantically.
