What are the functions of turn-ons and turn-offs?

Your Sims’ romantic attraction towards other Sims is influenced by their Turn-Ons and Turn-Offs. If a Sim has a turn-on for a certain trait or attribute, encountering another Sim with that same trait can ignite an attraction, leading to an increase in Romantic Satisfaction. This can greatly aid in the development of romantic relationships during the initial stages.

Conversely, having turn-offs will decrease the likelihood of your Sim being attracted to another Sim with a particular trait that is unappealing to them.

For instance, if your Sim possesses the Egotistical trait as a dislike, they will have a lower chance of being drawn to another Sim with the same trait. This will also lead to a decrease in their Romantic Satisfaction.

It is important to mention that even if two Sims have opposing Turn-Ons and Turn-Offs, their romantic relationship can still thrive. However, establishing a strong connection may require more effort.

Now that you know how to successfully attract other Sims, don’t forget to visit Cupid’s Corner for the opportunity to explore the world of online dating. And when you’re out on a date, take advantage of all the latest romantic features offered in Lovestruck.
