    Grim Reaper calls and ask for a date--accept or decline?

    Yes, this happened to my Sim today. I accepted. My Sim wondered, "Is this a trap or is the Reaper genuinely interested in getting to know me?" Just curious...has anyone else had romantic encounters with old Grimmy? How did it play out?
    P.S. Sim lived to tell the tale...at least this time...

      That's hilarious. I've never had it happen. I'm pretty sure I would have declined. Although, on second thought, I probably wouldn't want to make the grim reaper mad.

      It was pretty amusing. My Sim gave him a rose (being fresh out of death flowers), and the Reaper was not impressed. My Sim is still waiting for a callback. :wink: I'm thinking I will see how far I can go with this. My Sim kind of goes for the dark and mysterious (ahem, devious) type.

      I would totally accept just to see what happened...and have the story to tell after!

      Anything weird should be accepted and explored immediately! Unfortunately though, at least in my experience, The Grim Reaper has very little to offer as a romantic interest. At least in the realm of the living ...
      If I just posted an outfit you like, I have good news - there is more where that came from!

      The reaper asked my evil scientist lady on a date one time, but she had to decline because she was too busy starving her own clone to death in the basement pool room :'(

      At least she got to see him anyway.

      The good stuff always happens to me when I can't leave the lot also :D
      Otherwise I would clear the calendar and accept that date in a heartbeat... just because.

      This is excellent Simming advice in general. ^_^

      I've never had the Grim Reaper ask anyone out. He did move into an apartment in my PS4 game. Made completing the Grilled Cheese Aspiration way easier--just stop on by and say hello.

      I had it happen once. They went to the bar in Oasis Springs and hit off pretty good. He then creepily kept showing at my Sims home till I told him let's just be friends.

      This can happen? Wow I’m surprised that didn’t happen to my sim Kallie; she was best friends with the Grim Reaper her whole life.

      Decline, decline, decline. I've done it once, well more than once, but once with the same sim, and with the aid of mods, I was able to progress the relationship. The problem was the children looked absolutely abnormally hideous. I was able to cheat and get their faces to look normal at least, but their ears were extremely tiny, and it was not something I was able to ever fix. Everyone was stuck with longer hair, even if I wanted short hair on either the boys or girls, they all needed longer hair to cover those ears. To picture how small those ears were, just picture how small the noses were on those Sims 2 aliens. No matter how many generations had passed, those ears stuck, I couldn't breed the ears out.

      Well. That certainly answers some of my questions! I was hoping to progress to the "Woohoo" stage and make a Reaper, Jr., but Grimmy ignores my Sim now. Men, smh.

      Two of my female sims in different saves have had a romatic relationship with Grimmy (using the cheat to get rid off his trait for woohooing and adding it back afterwards). All his offsprings seem to be generated randomly, each of them looks different, but I all of them are adorable.

      And what cheat is this that you speak of? I'm intrigued.

      I don't allow Grimmy in to my saves any more. Grimmy should NOT become some npc townie who frequents bars or retail establishments ( and makes messes on the floors)

      That sounds like a very good story line! Always accept! I hope it happens to me and I get to play it out

      My general Sim philosophy is to never be afraid to explore. One never knows what's what unless they try...and it certainly makes the Sim world way more fun.

      While I've had games where sims had a somewhat ongoing flirtation with Grim, my favorite was one where Grim played (solitary) horseshoes for hours and hours. There was something oddly compelling about watching The Grim Reaper chillin' out in the back yard, carefully aiming and releasing horseshoes, over and over. Never had it happen again...probably because I seldom take my sims to Granite Falls, which is about the only place in my game with a horseshoe pit (& is where this event occurred).

      So, krenee77, your sim went on a date with Grim and thereafter he gave your sim the cut? The social one, I mean, not the one with his scythe. I suppose that's his thing; if he can't cut you one way, he cuts you the other. Yikes!

      I love it when he hangs out for a while. I agree--watching Grimmy enjoy mundane activities is amusing. He even took out my garbage one time. What a nice guy.
      He actually asked my sim out on a date twice more since. I found that if my sim texts him while in the "flirty" mood, Grimmy responds favorably. Even so, getting him to linger long enough to build the relationship is tricky. I'm still working on it!

      He did the laundry after the Sim he'd come to reap dropped it. He's quite useful around the house - he'd be a worthy catch for a marriage-minded Sim. I'm wondering what his traits are - and his aspiration. What does the Grim Reaper want out of life?
      I just want things to match. :'(

      This reminds me I had a retail store ince where Grimmy was a top customer 😂 he usually buys kitchen appliances.

      Accept it. My Sim was friends with the grim Reaper as a child. He goes on and Find Vampires, talk to them until they burn into the sun, and once he done thst he will see his friend again. Quite a nice scenario I always did for that child. Now I just realized its quite dark, burning vampires to the sun just to see your friend... but yeah accept it, When someone days and you plead, grimmy will accept it, it happened when the father of the child grimmy friend to died. They never see each other again since seasons makes its so rainyy

      Sorry for the belated answer. The cheat is traits.remove_trait GrimReaper and traits.equip_trait GrimReaper
