So personally one of the things that seemed to be missing the most in the sims 2 was that adult sims and even elder sims didn't have a go steady option or dating option like teens. Not to mention that the teens going steady really didn't mean much and also you had to have such a high relationship for the other person to accept which isn't very realistic to the real world. What I'm saying is they should put dating into the game for adults and elders because everyone dates someone before they would get engaged. They also need to make dating more dynamic and even marriage and being engaged because you really don't see very much connection between the two.
Some things to make relationships more dynamic could be:
- they ask eachother out on dates without being told to
- they phone each other without being told to
- they talk to other sims about they're partner
- they hold hands in public
- they give each other gifts
- they do things for each other that they don't like
- they may even offer to move in with one another once they have a strong enough relationship
there can be lots of other options too but I really think dating needs to become a bigger part of the game as well as more concrete.
Also with what I was saying before about how it takes a very high relationship to be accepted to go steady I think that it should be much lower. That's because the couple already has such a high relationship going into that relationship that there is no room to grow which makes no sense. They should start low and work their way up. It should also take a long time to have a super high relaitonship with someone because just because you woohoo every night that doesn't mean you are totally in love with them and would get married on the spot. On top of that I think that sims should be able to angry at each other easier if their traits do not match up therefore allowing for there to be more relationship dynamics and a reason for drama and a reason to break up.
