Getting into relationships is too easy...

What the title says.
Pretty sure we can all agree that getting into a relationship with another Sim is way /too/ easy. In just a matter of 5 minutes of, I already had the option for the other Sim to become my boyfriend.
Basically how it works: Get to know, deep conversation, jokes, jokes... etc, flirt, flirt, confess admiration, first kiss, become boyfriend & girlfriend.
Then: Offer rose, kiss, kiss neck, hold hands, make out or whatever, woohoo, propose.
In probably a few minutes, all of this can be achieved and congratulations, you now have a wife/husband. Where is the fun in that?!
It would be neat if they could make it harder so it would take longer to get into a relationship. It would be ...
1. More challenging.
2. More fun.
3. More realistic.
If there are any mods that elongate he "relationships" bar, then please let me know.
Still, it should be changed.

Yeah and that's what I love about TS2. It's challenging and although it gets a bit frustrating, it's still fun and adds more realism in the game. Seems like your Sim is going to be forever alone
You know, meet in the morning, married in the evening and a baby three days later?
I get what you mean though, how many people really have such an easy ride in relationships in reality?
The other issue is every player plays differently, and they probably give us fast relationships because of pacing.
There should be a way to account for how effective interactions are based on Lifespan setting--because someone who plays with aging off doesn't have to worry about time, whereas someone who plays on "Short" needs to form relationships fast.
I play with a modified Normal lifespan and find myself pacing my relationships to make them more realistic. Introduce themselves here, a few friendly interactions, and leave. Meet them somewhere else, chat, maybe a little flirting. Finally ask them out later, etc.
