Ambitious Sims may become Tensetense if not promoted. Sims get Tensetense when reading a skill [[book]] that is too advanced for their skill level. Working Too Hard at work also has a chance of making a Sim Tensetense. FiresHaving ''Writer's Block'' can make a Sim tense. [[Fire]]s can make Sims Tensetense. Sims also get tense if a [[toddler]] is crying or having a tantrum. A Sim with this emotion can progress to feeling ''Very'very Tensetense'''. [[Trait (The Sims 4)#Satisfaction Reward Traits|Carefree]] Sims cannot be inflicted with any Tense moodlets, and thus, the emotion itself.
