'''Wants and fears''' (known internally as '''SWAF''' for short)<ref>http://modthesimssimswiki.info/wiki.php?title=SWAF</ref>) are aspects of a [[Sim]]'s life in ''[[The Sims 2]]''. Wants indicate something that a Sim, well, wants. These wants can include having a child, wanting to get married, or just speaking with another Sim. A fear, however, is the downside to life. Sims gain [[Aspiration (The Sims 2)|aspiration]] points when they fulfill wants, and lose them when they experience fears.
 
Initially, a Sim is born with 4 want slots and 3 fear slots. With ''[[The Sims 2: University]]'', Sims could receive a fifth want slot as a bonus for completing freshman year at [[college]], and a sixth if they [[graduation|graduated]]. If a Sim gets expelled, the Sim will receive a 4th fear slot. Also, if ''[[The Sims 2: Bon Voyage]]'' is installed, a Sim can get an extra want slot for 48 hours as a benefit from a good vacation.

The fear that possibly takes away the most aspiration/influence points is a teen not going to college (with 10,000- aspiriationaspiration and 5,000- influence). The fear that takes away the most in the base game is having an accident (neglecting the bladder need) at a party (with 8,000- aspiration and 5,000- influence).
*Some wants, like roasting a marshmallow over a fire jet or burning a bonfire, do not have pictures, but are blank. However, they can still be fulfilled.
*The sound that plays when fulfilling a want is sampled from the original ''The Sims'' theme song.
