@SimGuruJanitor Please look into this bug and yes I agree it is the most disturbing bug in the game. It's sad it still exists and probably could easily change the ESRB ratings if not fixed.

I've asked to have this bug looked at many many times with no actual response - it has completely stopped me from playing with families because ew.
Dear EA/Maxis,
I am incredibly disappointed with the lack of answers provided by you in regards to issues and bugs with TS4. I will not be purchasing anything more from you until a proper venue for dialogue is opened.
One of the reasons I downloaded MC CMD Center was so I could remove relationships like that (unwanted romance) with ease.. I'd really suggest looking into that if you don't like incest...Its disgusting imo.
I had the same when my sims (man) little daughter had the tiniest bit of romance for her dad. In order to make myself feel better (and not so incestuous about it) I played it off as that moment in a daughters life when they wanna marry their dad and it's all cute and stuff -.-
I haven't had it happen. I'm sure it would upset me if it was with a family I cared about. I'd have to go back to an old save game or find a cheat to erase that.
I play in weird and bipolar ways though... so if it were just a throw them together type of world I'd probably laugh at it.
I still have this bug, but it honestly doesn't disturb me like it seems to disturb others. They still cannot perform romantic actions on each other, being the game still recognizes them as family. It doesn't really cause a problem with the game unless you sit there and stare at the relationship meter. I'd like for the gurus to address said bug, but in the meantime there's much worse and troublesome bugs that have yet to be addressed.
I don't have the issue in my game -- the only time I've run into it was with a family I downloaded from the Gallery and I'm wondering if the creator used cheats to get the relationship the way it was (the friendship bar was way in the red but the romance bar was way in the pink, and it was father and daughter). If you play rotational, that sort of event can occur when you're not playing that particular family.
I use a mod that turns off autonomous use of flirty/enchanting greetings -- that seems to have cut back on a lot of the exterior romantic hanky-panky. Not sure if it helps to curb the incest glitch.

I also dislike the random lovebird status my other sims get with random townies. I use MC CMD to get rid of that romance bar asap. I would love for Maxis to fix it, but they are too busy making party themed packs so I will resort to mods to fix my game.

actually for me this unlocked the "romantic actions" between sims.
for peoples which say this "never happened", well if you want this happen in your game is not hard is pretty easy.
have big families in your world, like 1 father 1 mother 1 daugther and 1 son or some more, at last 4 sims in the family, if possible later split then in the world, like if the father and mother are elder or adults and the offsprings are teen or young adult, then stop to play with one of them (the parents or the childs)then keep meeting then in the game over and over and let the "flirt" mood act by himself, at one game moment that "emotion" will overcome the family bounds and break the family.
another even more easy is not playing with anyone create a new family and after many days(prefer aging off) go back to watch that family relationship and you will get "surprised".
i believe which peoples which say "i never had it" is more how they play, this bug happen much more when involving non played sims than "played" ones.
another big factor in this bug is the "romantic traits", the most strong is the "flirt mood" in a sim the big become the chance of the bug happen specially if but sims are in "flirt mood" and that mood is more like +3 or more.
then if you aways keep playing with the same sims or constantly keep switching fast between families then the chance of happen is lessened but if you like to focus on one family or take a lot of time to switch between families then you gonna notice this happen very often.

The mod I mentioned (no autonomous flirty/enchanting greetings) seems to have solved the random lovebird issue -- you can still use them with your Sims but don't have to worry what's happening when your back is turned. (Summer Holiday seemed to be the worst offender -- in my previous games I'd use my friend's Simself and he always ended up with a Lovebirds status with Summer.)

I just started a new neighborhood with 25 families. I have that mod, but I still have random lovebird statuses when I rotate over. I rotate houses every Wednesday. I also have sims flirting with their neighbor's wives at dinner parties autonomously. WTH sims! Eat your dinner and stop hitting on your neighbors. I use that mod to remove the romance bar *a lot*!
Funny thing though is I don't do any rotational play at all and STILL got this bug, so I don't think it's subject to one's play style. Either way I still only shrug my shoulders at this bug.

I also have the no flirting/enchanting introductions mod and I thought it was working when I first added it but I too was still getting sims that would have romances when I rotated away. I can't play without MC CMD.
