Summary
The Sims 4’s latest expansionLovestruckis delivering the spice asplayers share their stories about their Sims wildest (and in some cases never-ending) dates.One of the most anticipated DLCsfor Maxis' beloved life sim, the romance-themed add-on focuses on overhaulingThe Sims 4’s dating experience by providing players with more interactions than ever before. While that’s led to some sweet moments and the occasional strange partner, one player managed to woo a Sim so well that the NPC simply didn’t want the night to end.
Posted to Reddit bysunflowerdruid, the player shared their experience of going out witha besotted Sim who continually asked to extend the date, culminating in an outing that lasted over 30 in-game hours.
It’s certainly a fun bug, one that’s been experienced by a handful of other players, but userProfessional-Yam601took the anecdote to the next level. They share thaton their Sim’s first date, they had their first kiss, became engaged, and moved in together with their partner before he walked outdue to feeling “unsatisfied in the relationship.”

Lovestruck Is All About The Drama
Who Doesn’t Like Causing Trouble For Their Sims?
While a premade Sim asking to extend a date for over 30 hours does sound like a bug,otherSims 4players have noted that Celene does have a tendency to fall in love quickly. Another user noted that Celene convinced their Sim to skip work to spend more time together on a date before eventually proposing on their third outing. Some have complained that the glitch is fun but it can quickly become frustrating because leaving a date prematurely has a high chance of upsetting the involved Sim.
Lovestruckcontinues to provide the romantic drama that’slong been missing fromThe Sims 4.The expansion goes the extra mile by adding an in-game dating app that allows Sims to match with various charactersin their neighborhood for series dates or fun flings. Most interesting is the fact that the app, Cupid’s Corner, also pulls potential matches from player’s galleries, leading to some bizarre interactions with the likes ofShrek and Captain Jack Sparrow.
The Sims 4hasnever been more popular thanks toLovestruckwhich arrived at a point when audiences were beginning to grow tired with Maxis' games. With the future ofThe Sims 5seemingly up in the air,players may need to settle for even more expansions for the foreseeable future. If they deliver the kind of quality content seen inLovestruck, that should hardly be a problem.
