Title: Question about engagements Post by: rosenshyne on 2007 July 04, 23:33:01 Will townies ever propose marriage? Or is it a completely non-autonomous interaction?
Title: Re: Question about engagements Post by: akatonbo on 2007 July 05, 00:13:03 It's non-autonomous. If you've read stories where playables have romanced townies and it looked as if the townie proposed before actually moving into the house, it's just storytelling (and occasionally pictures not being used in the same order in the story as the order they were taken in).
Title: Re: Question about engagements Post by: Madame Mim on 2007 July 05, 01:08:43 Actually I've had some 'autonomous' proposals - with the Sim Slice Beer keg. It's one of the inappropriate actions pushed by it. I've even had one acceptance.
<edit> actually I should have been clearer - I wasn't paying proper attention. It was engagement proposals not marriage ones that were being pushed by the Slice Keg - sorry.

Townies cannot propose marriage, because the proposee moves in with the proposer, which wouldn't work because townies don't have a home!Title: Re: Question about engagements Post by: kuronue on 2007 July 06, 01:29:36 Will townies ever propose marriage?

Title: Re: Question about engagements Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2007 July 07, 12:49:22 Four words: No mother-in-law. If you can't stand your mother-in-law, divorce is soon to follow anyway, as clearly, your spouse has the genetically inherited tendency to piss you off. Never marry anyone who's family you hate. If you hate their family, you hate them, too. They're all the same.Title: Re: Question about engagements Post by: Zazazu on 2007 July 07, 17:15:23 Four words: No mother-in-law.

Title: Re: Question about engagements Post by: Li'l Brudder on 2007 July 09, 20:50:04 And you MARRIED into this dysfunctional quagmire? Are you SURE it wasn't a shotgun wedding?
Title: Re: Question about engagements Post by: sewinglady on 2007 July 09, 22:17:31 No, If I read that right, that quagmire is HER family and her HUSBAND married into it anyway...
I dunno about the 'no mom-in-law' thing... I've made some sim story lines involving in-laws - my favorite was where the male sim romanced both the mom and the uni student daughter, got Mom preggers, then married the uni student daughter when she graduated...there was a spectacular fight at the wedding - Mom was in attendance... Just to pay him back for his, uh, 'family foible', his wife wasn't particularly faithful... Title: Re: Question about engagements Post by: aubreylaraine on 2007 July 10, 06:25:14 yes, my quagmire. no shotgun, it was a little bitty bullet.
my poor sims, they dont branch out much from the trunk. :P unless i turn the acr to spouse only, weddings and parties turn into riots. sister against sister, father against son. but since i installed fight club i might start leaving it set normally.

She was just like my mom.. she looked like her, talked like her and even cooked the same meals like mom did. I took her home to meet the folks.. and Dad hated her." |
