Line 33:
[[Relationships]] with other Sims will also change Sims' Wants and Fears about them. Sims who are just becoming [[friendship|friends]] will typically fear being rejected for a simple [[social interaction]]; as the relationship progresses, this fear will be changed for a more complex interaction or fear of the Sim's [[death]]. If a Sim has an enemy, he/she will typically want a bad thing to happen to that Sim.
 
Similarly, Wants and Fears tend to be influenced by a Sim's [[aspiration]]: a Sim with a [[Knowledge]] aspiration will tend to want to gain [[Skill|skill points]] or maximize a skill and fear losing skill points, whereas a [[Romance]] Sim will want to [[WooHoo]] with almost everyone around them and fear marrying, while a family[[Family (aspiration)|Family]] Sim will want to flirt with a Sim, marry, and have kids.
 
Fears can also change as various elements of a Sim's life change. For example, a Sim may fear having another child if they already have 4, or a [[personality|sloppy]] Sim may fear changing a diaper if a [[baby]] is [[pregnancy|born]]. With ''[[FreeTime]]'', some wants may be related to a Sim's [[enthusiasm]] in a [[hobby]]. For example, a Sim who has enthusiasm in [[Fitness]] may want to buy an exercise machine.
Line 39:
Some Wants and Fears related to an event may not be unlocked until a Sim has experienced that event. For example, Wants and Fears related to [[alien abduction]] may not start appearing until a Sim has been abducted.
 
In rare occurrencesOccasionally, sometimes a Sim may actually want and fear the exact same thing at the exact same time. This mostly happens towith the "Have A Baby" want, particularly with Family Sims.
