"Need Potential Partner on Lot" But they're married!
« on: October 18, 2012, 09:10:34 AM »
My married couple have lost the option to WooHoo.  Their relationship bar is maxed out and they find each other "extremely irresistable" but for whatever reason, even in the shower and hot tub, the WooHoo option is grayed out.  I have reset both sims, but it hasn't helped.  Thoughts?

Were both of them awake and out of bed?  I know I get this response when one of them is asleep.  Or if one of them is involved in giving birth, aging up, or anything else like that.

Yep, both are awake and canoodling.  They have every interaction except for WooHoo

If the option is grayed out, you can mouse over it and it should tell you the reason why you cant woohoo. Can you have a look? I am curious as to why too!  ;)

Oh my gosh I get this all the time too! It's frustrating. And now my female sim keeps getting the wish to move in with her husband! But they in the same house already!!!

I get that with the shower when only one sim are at home, also when one is inside and the other outside.

They aren't under the effects of a mood lamp, are they? That tends to get rid of the Try For Baby option.

Did you exit and restart the game?  That might help.

Perhaps get them in the mood first? Some fore-flirting or romantic drinks? My sim couples would randomly refuses to kiss each other unless they do some light flirting first.

I'm going to second this.  I always forget about it and complain to my BF that my game is broken, he says restart the game (sometimes computer even) and its all back to normal.

I have this issue, too, and usually it's because one of them is still asleep when you want to cue the action.

In my Life States Dynasty, my founder is hydrophobic and it took me a while to figure out that was the reason she didn't get the Woohoo option in the shower. Even if her husband initiated the Woohoo it got cancelled. Perhaps one (or both) of your Sims are hydrophobic?

Have you ever had any kids taken away?  I can't remember whether that gets rid of just try for baby or the woohoo option all together.

Nope, no hydrophobia, no bad parenting, full relationship bar.  Restarting my computer is a stellar suggestion.  I shall do that upon returning home.
