Hello! :) I was just wondering if someone could answer my question?
Basically, I started off with a male and female Sim in a household, who eventually got married! Anyhow, out of interest, I started increasing friendship and then the romantic relationship with a DIFFERENT male Sim (to get to know how the game works, I was just testing a lot of different features, really). Anyhow, I managed to get their relationship bar full and they ended up dating each other! So my Sim was married to one Sim whilst having a relationship with the other? And neither Sim accused my Sim of cheating or anything... I remember in TS3 how angry the romantic interest would get if you so much as did the Kiss action with another Sim! I was wondering if it's a glitch or something?
Thanks for your time :)

> your sim can have affairs with other sims without the instinct like in sims 3...it's not a bug or at least I think not sure :/ lol you can have multiple relationships
Thank you :) I wasn't sure if it was a bug or not! I think it's because I've spent so long playing TS3 that it's just taking me time to get used to the differences in TS4 haha
no problem XD yeah my sim is currently romantic interest with about 4 women lmao!!! he's on fire!

Oh my! He's a busy guy haha
so many women...so little time...between work, gym, & making time...it's not easy being in his shoes XD
it's also a lot of home wrecking lmao!
Another "multiple romance" situation I have is in a save that I am playing in a round robin way. Play a household for a week and then switch. The two households I am playing have a relationship going on. They aren't boyfriend and girlfriend, but still maxed friendship and romance. I switch to the guys household for a week and when I go back to the girls household she has a new man, as well as the previous guy.
The sad thing is that a lot of people actually do so and the game just mirrors their lifestyle. Or it's just me going pessimistic?
There are still people who remain faithful to their spouse and never cheat.
Same with sims. My couples won't cheat because I don't plan on switching households.
You're reading way too much into a game. That's like saying the people who play shooters really wish they could be out killing people.
Some people find juggling multiple relationships in the game to be fun and/or a challenge. There's not really any more to it than that. And, for what it's worth, infidelity has been around probably since the dawn of humanity -- it's certainly not anything modern.
I disagree. Those who wanted their sims to cheat could make them do so in every game in The Sims series. But there was a price for such acts, as there is in reality - the betrayed sims who found out about it got angry at the cheaters and the relationsip bar took a massive drop.
I'm not trying to deny that there were love affairs and cheating since the birth of a mankind - and they will be there until its extinction.
To use your analogy, it would be like playing shooters where people who you shoot in the head would laugh and say that you're cool - or they just wouldn't care about it and would keep enjoying their days.
The relationship panel said Broke up- It's complicated. lol
But geez. It was heavy. And even a day or two after, he came home from work and cried it out.
I LOVE this!
You've been able to do it in all of them, if you were careful about it -- it's just a bit easier now.
