Aw, you don't have to apologize. It's alright. I can definitely understand, and I didn't take it personally. *hugs* I'm actually finding this forum to be a lot nicer, too.
Haha, I'd love to see the dancing skill/career--and Sims tripping over each other while trying to dance, unlocking new styles (tango, swing, ballet, twerking was even mentioned) I could go on forever.
Then Sims can instruct others how to dance (maybe as an achievement after maxing the dancing skill?)
Agree--slow dancing back please with all the actions that have been available in the past. Some of the other suggested animations sound fun, also--animations depending on traits, different type of dance styles, etc.
Might I also ask that if a sim asks another sim to dance that they actually face one another? If it's a group of sims dancing together, then can they all face towards the center of a circle? It looks really odd: I want to dance with you but *gasp* cannot bring myself to look at you!
it would make weddings more authentic. father and daughter, mother and son,
That's cute! I like the idea of it not necessarily being romantic, but maybe each dance has a special romantic interaction that only appears if the sims have a flirtatious relationship? So any two sims could formally waltz, but maybe romantically linked sims might have a 'dance closer' or 'dip kiss' option. 'Kiss up arm' has to be a tango option for Morty and Bella!
I like EmmaVane's idea of having genre specific dancing styles too.
yeah and for story purposes a parent could teach their child to dance. who says toddlers should be the only ones who need to be taught, teaching your child or inept teenager to dance for prom.
I have always wanted a true dance career in the Sims 3 and it never really came to pass.. It would be awesome with all this multitasking and the body emphasis and the potential of having an open employment area in this game to really bring this kind of career to life.. Can you imagine a Sims Dancing with the Stars community lot where they have Celebrity Sims that the game generates come in and be a Dance partner to your Sim while At their job on the community lot..

Thank you for bringing this to their attention. It's so good to know someones paying attention to us. This game has so much potential.
bumpbumpbump I was just thinking about this :( I definitely want this back, along with new dances ex. ballet or tango. Dancing could even be a career! (I think I remember it being a career in the Sims 2 at some point but I haven't played it in a long time.)
Great idea @kylriffle. I have sent it to the team.
standard caveat: We love ideas, we look at them all, some of them might make it into the game, some of them might not. Please don't let that stop you putting your ideas forward.
Thank you for passing this along. Also we need normal dancing together were sims face each other when dancing.
Loved the OP's ideas and would really love to have actual couple dances like swing, or salsa or waltz .. the list goes on. I'd love to see my sims and other sims doing things like this at a themed party . Or just on their own.
Yes, all these ideas are so good! I also think that maybe sims should be able to dance to another sim (whether they were hired or not) playing the piano/violin/guitar etc. That would be so cute! I mean, dancing to live music? Heck yes!!
This is an interaction I am really missing from sims 3! Please bring back slow dance, either in a stuffpack or a free update for valentines day.
I MISS IT SO MUCH to see my couples, and especially elder married sims, slow dance together to classical music in their livingroom. I loved watching them and I miss this dance.

The slow dance is something that really need to come back! It was in all the previous versions, so why not in Sims 4???
WE ALL want the slow dance back! PLEASE!
„ - Criticism may not be agreeable, but it's sometimes necessary - “
@LuvMySimz Agreed. I was just thinking about this the other day when I had my sim take his sweetheart out. I miss the slow dancing, it made it more romantic that "busting a move" on the dance floor. I think they should bring back the "Smustle" dance, that always cracked me up
It'd be nice if a couple of variations of couples dances were added.
An ordinary, sedate couples dance, like how people dance with their parents at a wedding, a pseudo waltz.
A more romantic, tango-ish style dance.
And an energetic style like the lindy hop
slow dance is great but I hope they consider making couple holding hands when walking, we never had this interaction before and I would like to see this coming.

Speaking of holding hands; remember in Sims2 how a coupe sleeping in bed were holding hand while sleeping??? I miss that also very much in Sims4.
I WANT THAT BACK ALSO - Please EA, give us back the romantic stuff which made the Sims for us so adorable. Pretty PLEASE))))
