Starting MySims Legacy Challenge already failing...

Sooooooo... I started a MySims Legacy Challenge some time ago, but now I bumped in what is my biggest mistake ever.
My founder is named Liz. I recently bought the Cats & Dogs EP and wanted to try living in Brindleton Bay with her. People who had this game for a while will know Brant and Brent Hecking, but of course I didn't knew them, or their relationship. AT ALL.
So, my motto is: if you see something hot, just go for it. On my first day, there was this welcome wagon, and both Brent and Brant showed up. I always have headlineeffects off, so of course I couldn't see that way that the two of them had the same last name. I thought they were just neighbors or something. I DIDN'T KNEW THEY WERE MARRIED.
I thought Brent was cute, so following my motto, I made Liz go for it. At first Brent rejected all the flirting, but now that I think about it, Brant was in the same room. I didn't think much of it and they went on a date some time later. Brent actually accepted the flirtings now, so yeah, I thought everything was allright! They became boy- and girlfriend and they would have a happy ending. Or so I thought.
I wanted to marry them, but the only option I got was something like 'convince to divorce' or something. That's when I freaked out. How did I not see that?!
At their date I made them kiss so much that they were almost full in their pink bar so I didn't want to give up. I clicked that button. Brant and Brent divorced.
Does this make me a horrible person? If I knew all that, I wouldn't have done it, youknow, but love is strong! I can't just say: "okay we're boy- and girlfriend and I really want to marry you but you are already married so I'll keep you hanging"???
What would you have done in this situation? (I can't go back btw, I'm in the middle of a Legacy Challenge and Brent has already recovered from his wounds. He's happy with Liz now).

Btw, something similar happened to me in TS3. It was the first time ever I played the game. I created a lovely sim. Her name was Lisbeth Devon. I wanted her to be a single mom so I had her go for a baby daddy hunt. She met Marty Keaton. Marty Keaton made my sim pregnant. My sim goes into labor. He appears to acompany her to a hospital. My sim has a baby. My sim takes her baby for a stroll. My sim meets Justine. Justine Keaton. What the?!?!?! Yep. Marty has a wife. I felt so bad and guilty. But you know, such mistakes happen IN THIS GAME. I do not approve this IRL.
@rottmeister Yeah, maybe that's also true... So Liz and Brent can live a happy live together in my Legacy game without guilty feelings towards Brant? That would be great. Brent seems to have forgotten about the divorce already (like, he's not sad anymore or thinking about it) and Liz also doesn't seem to mind that anymore :P It's soooo weird.
Or secretly date both?
😆
Hahahhahhah
I don't think I can possibly start that challenge without feeling guilty :P Maybe that changes if I can constantly do that, but I'm not going to try that xD
And, no, you aren't a horrible person at all! A horrible person wouldn't feel guilty.
When I first started the Pinstar Legacy Challenge, I brought my singer Sim, Erik Cantrell, into Sims 4. His backstory was perfect in my eyes ( he was a five-star celebrity a full scale Rock Star). Erik wanted a family and left the 'business' to pursue that end. Sadly, his Accountant had been skimming his bank account and Erik had barely enough to purchase some land. So, as per the rules, I set him down on the largest piece of land we had back then (2014) and went from there. I was having a blast. Mind you, this was back before we had the ability to see what age bracket a Sim was by moving the curser over them. My Sim found a Sim he really liked, (we had to select from the Townies, but unfortunately, another far more seductive type caught his eye and he went off and pursued her. Long story shortened, he ended up marrying Sim number two and I kid you not just moments after they were wed she's suddenly dressed in a red dress and I realized she was an Elder.
I probably could have started all over again. But, I was blogging about it and in the 'rules' we're supposed to just roll with the punch. So, I did something I normally don't do. My Founder called his now best friend, Sim number one, and asked for advice. Basically, she offered to bear his children for him. Eventually, they came up with a crazy excuse to have her move in. Her boyfriend, the baby-daddy, kicked her out and Erik didn't want her out on the streets, etc. Ya-da, ya-da. Whether the old bat of a wife saw through the ruse, who knows? But she was guilty of lying to him about her age. She owed him this. It made for some great game play, lots of drama. By the time Erik and his girlfriend were on baby number three, he made the epic mistake of giving his good news to her first, over Maddie, his lawful wife. This set Maddie off and they began a verbal fight, punctuated by her autonomously throwing her drink into his face.
So you see, you may be in for the ride of your life!

Is MCC worth it?
It's absolutely immersion breaking for me that everyone just ages up and does nothing with their lives. It's so sad that families just disappear, no offspring or anything.
I've only had the Get to school mod before, but deleted it bc it stopped working well for me.
@rottmeister I think it’s absolutely worthy. I struggled a bit in the beginning, I didn’t knew ANYTHING about it, but now that I do I really can’t imagine my game without it anymore. It gives character to my game outside of my family. I really like that!
My vampire was looking for someone to date so she could drink from them whenever. She met Brant and started flirting with him.
I didn't know they were married, either, until Brent stomped over really 🐸🐸🐸🐸 off and took Brant with him.
So it didn't go any further lol
He actually looked angry and she actually looked embarrassed. I loved it. Took a screenshot:
And Brant just looks amused. What a troll.
