The Sims 4 Relationships: Cheats to Skip the Small Talk and Get Straight to Romance

In a game like The Sims 4, where socializing, making friends, and falling in love are central to the gameplay, there’s always that temptation to take a shortcut. Who needs chit-chat when cheat codes can do the trick? We’ve rounded up all the relationship cheats you need, including some tricks for getting closer to your furry friends.

Building Relationships in The Sims 4

Your Sim will spend a lot of time building relationships with other Sims in the game – it’s one of the backbones of the series! You can find all the juicy details about your relationships in the relationships panel of your UI. Here, you can see every Sim you’ve ever interacted with and the nature of your relationship. It’s like having a little black book, Sims style!

Relationships in The Sims 4 are measured by two meters: friendship and romance. Every Sim starts with a friendship meter, while the romance meter is reserved for those special Sims you’ve been flirting with. Both meters can advance through different interactions, so get ready for some virtual sparks to fly!

Flirting Across Orientations and Expansions

Depending on each Sim’s sexual orientation settings, you can usually flirt with a wide variety of Sims. However, not everyone will be as receptive as before, so tread carefully!

When exploring a Sim’s profile, you’ll find fascinating tidbits about your relationship, such as the nature of the relationship, current happiness levels, and shared memories. Different expansion packs can also spice up your relationships, adding family dynamics or traits from relationships with children.

Kindness is Key, But Watch Out for the Meanies

Different Sims prefer different interactions based on their traits and your relationship. In general, kind interactions boost relationships, while mean or mischievous ones can seriously sour the mood. Just like in real life, relationships can deplete over time, so make sure to check in often with your virtual friends and family!
