Me, The Sim Matchmaking Guru...

As all of you can remember from my last post, I'm so totally into Sims 3 right now and I've made a girl named, Celestyne to get me into the new world of Sims 3. One thing I loved about the Sims series right from the start is the ability to "play" god over one virtual household, like setting up one sim with another and have complete control over them.

I made Celestyne to have five base traits (each new young adult / adult sim you make in Create-A-Sim has 5 character slots you have to choose)


*Family Oriented ( A Sim who wants to have a family and wants to raise 5 kids to adulthood.)

LIFETIME WISH: To be surrounded by family and friends

  • Natural Cook
  • Hopeless Romantic
  • Great Kisser
  • Good Sense Of Humor
  • Family Oriented*
Currently Employed as : Executive Chef

(At first Celestyne had a crush on her boss at the restaurant where she works but she learned that he already had a wife and kids so I made them be just good friends instead so her career won't suffer. ) I can't find anyone that can go well with her to have a family with... so I had to take matters in my own hands. :: EVIL GRIN::

Now let me introduce to you, Celestyne's boyfriend/ Fiancee:

Nathaniel Black

I haven't figured out yet how to put 2 separate sims in one neighborhood yet. (because one of the many differences between Sims 2 and 3 is each househould have different save files.) So I still don't know how to make them meet each other the natural way. Nathaniel isn't one of the "townies" in Riverview. I made him and merged his household with Celestyne's and their relationship when he first moved in... they were "Housemates".

Nathaniel has these main traits.

LIFETIME WISH: To be surrounded by family and friends

*Family Oriented ( A Sim who wants to have a family and wants to raise 5 kids to adulthood.)
  • Bookworm
  • Green Thumb
  • Family Oriented*
  • Good Sense Of Humor

After 2-3 hours, I've made both of them have a lot of "friendly interactions" which led them to become close friends and a single kiss from Celestyne made Nathaniel fall for her. Another hour passed by and their relatonship meter reached Boyfriend/Girlfriend stage and one "WooHoo" later, one of Nathaniel's lifetime wishes was to get engaged with Celestyne while Celestyne had the "get married" icon in her lifetime wishes.

I just hope having the same 2 main traits are enough for them (compatible enough) for them to wanna have kids together.

Let's see how good a sim matchmaking guru I can be...
