MCCC Dating Bug

Hello! I just started using the MCCC mod yesterday. It's the first and only mod I've ever used and so far I'm really liking all of the story progression it's adding to my game. HOWEVER, I tried to have my sim go on a date today and it failed...took my sim to the venue, her date was not there, a bronze award popped up saying the date was finished even though it had never began. After doing some searching online, I found that the copy of MCCC I had downloaded wasn't the most up to date, so I deleted it, repaired my game, and then downloaded vs 8.1.0 from Patreon. Re-did all of my MCCC Settings (which took like 30 real-life minutes all on it's own 
) and tried taking my sim on a date again, and the same thing happened. I'm so frustrated right now...I resisted mods for the longest time because I was afraid of something like this happening.
I tried to go to the MCCC discord for help and I can't get into it. Has anyone else experienced this bug and know how to fix it? I'm not very tech savvy when it comes to mods/coding/computer files. The idea of having to remove this mod and then re-do all of the settings for it again seriously makes me want to cry.

@texxx78 I've a done few more test plays with and without mccc using the bad save and a recovered save and I think you're right. I think when I was originally using mccc 8.0.0 before I realized 8.1.0 was out it may have corrupted that save file. The recovered previous save is behaving correctly now with mccc 8.1.0 and dates are seemingly working as they should (the only weird thing is that when the sims first arrive at the date venue, their date progress bar is already a quarter filled in before they date has even begun, but it does allow them to proceed with the date instead of ending immediately so that's the most important part).
On the corrupted save, I finally got the date to work by taking the sims to a different venue and doing the "ask on a date" interaction there instead of the venue where they were originally at (maybe the glitch was actually with that original venue instead the date interaction itself?). However, when they arrived at the date venue I got a pop up from mccc advising there was an error that was logged most likely caused by out of date mods or cc, even though at that point I confirmed 8.1.0 was installed and all 8.0.0 files were completely deleted from my laptop. I'm guessing accidentally using 8.0.0 on that save previously has permanently corrupted it so I'm just going to delete it and stick with the recovered file.
@Bananas_45 I did get that Last Exception warning today when I was play testing the corrupted save even though I confirmed 8.1.0 was the only thing installed and I don't use any other mods or cc. I think some coding from 8.0.0 must be stuck in that save file. I'm going to delete it and just play the recovered save that seems to be working now and hope for the best. Thank you!
Because I can't; I keep all sigs turned off.
@VeeDub I actually did not know about either of those things, so THANK YOU SO MUCH! Will deleting the localthumbcache.package file remove my previous save files that I might need for save recovery?
No, those saves will remain as long as you don't remove or overwrite them yourself. And you're quite welcome.
