The One with All the Romance: The Best Sims 4 Romance Experience You Can’t Miss

Getting bored of the base game romance experience? Here is a must-try Sims 4 mod to diversify and boost your Sim’s romance trip. Enjoy more choices to chat with your partner: pick-up lines, compliments, arguments… (You name it!) This post covers all you need to know about this mod by katie_mods.

Key Takeaways

Install The One With All The Romance Sims 4

You can install Sims 4 The One With All The Romance through CurseForge. Mind that if you are using CurseForge desktop app, the mod page will not show the “Relations” tab to inform you what other dependent mods you need to install. In that case, you can go to CurseForge web page to check the tab.

But basically, you just need to install Mega Interaction Series Core Requirements and The One With All The Feelings before you install The One With All The Romance. That’s all you need.

Because CurseForge will automatically detect the game file, you can open the game directly and the mod will be installed already.

As the final step, you need to go to the game options to allow scripts mod.

Interaction options of The One With All The Romance Sims 4

If you are interacting with your partner or boyfriend/girlfriend, there will be more options in the Mega Interactions, such as Argue, Compliments, Discuss Relationship, etc.

If you are with an acquaintance, or a stranger, who does not have a romantic relationship with you yet, you can only do Compliments, Romantic, Get To Know, or Pick Up Lines.

After some progress but not yet becoming lovers, you can choose to interact with options in Enemies to Lovers or Friends to Lovers. However, if you try to kiss the date but it is confirmed that he has no romantic interest in you, all the options in Mega Interactions will be disabled, except Get To Know.

Here is the comprehensive list of all the options you can choose in Mega Interactions. It is worthy of notice that the progress made in friendship and romance can be quite slow with Mega Interactions. There will be “++” at the start of the conversation. But as the conversation goes on, most of the interaction only brings “+” to both friendship and romance.

You can switch between Mega Interactions and Romance (from the base game) depending on your needs. If you want a faster boost in the romantic relationship, use Romance (from the base game) more as it will bring “❤++”. But if you want to make progress in both friendship and romance, you can do more Mega Interactions as each interaction will benefit both.

Complements: Friendship+ Romance+/++

the one with all the romance sims 4 compliments
  • Aside from food, you’re my favorite
  • Bet you sweat glitter
  • On a scale of 1 to 10, you’re an 11
  • You light up the room
  • You’re funner than bubblewrap
  • You’re better than an unicorn
  • You’re adorable
  • You make time stop and fly at the same time
  • Your voice is magnificent
  • Your smile is contagious
  • You’re irresistible
  • You’re like sunshine on a rainy day

Compliments are very similar to Pick Up Lines in The One With All The Romance Sims 4. I believe that many compliments in this mod are actually used as pick-up lines in real life. Interestingly, you can see the reply of your date upon receiving the compliment.

“On a scale of 1 to 10, you’re an 11.”

“And you’re a 3000.”

The Sim who receives the compliments will also have an infatuated buff, “Head Over Heels (From Romantic Comment From Partner).”

Discuss Relationship: Friendship+ Romance+

  • Ask for more space
  • Ask for more support
  • Ask to be more attentive
  • Ask to be more present
  • Communicate difficulty trusting
  • Communicate feeling hurt by argument
  • Communicate feeling like partner changed
  • Discuss finances
  • Ask for more communication

There are more relationship dynamics in this option. You will observe totally different mood buff between the initiator and the receiver of this interaction. The one who initiates the discussion usually has the positive buff, while the one who listens to the demand might feel sad or confident.

Get To Know: Friendship+ Romance+/++

  • Do you believe love can last forever?
  • Do you want to have kids one day?
  • Tell me about yourself
  • Tell me something no one knows about you
  • What are your pet peeves?
  • What causes do you care about?
  • What do you like to do for fun?
  • What do you want in a relationship?
  • What makes you happy?
  • What movie can you quote most lines?
  • What values are most important to you?
  • What would be your ideal first date?
  • What’s your biggest dream?
  • What’s your love language?
  • Who inspires you and way?

You can still use Get To Know to interact with your date even if it’s confirmed that they have no romantic interest in you. The interaction is defined as a friendly interaction. That’s why.

The downside of these options is that you won’t know the answers from your date like the pick-up lines. This reduces the fun of this interaction in a way as it doesn’t lead to any interesting discoveries.

Pick Up Lines: Friendship+ Romance+

  • Are you australian?
  • Are you wi-fi?
  • Are you a cat?
  • Did you sit in sugar?
  • Do you have an extra heart?
  • I’m lost
  • I’m staring at your heart
  • If you were a balloon
  • If you were a triangle
  • If you were a vegetable
  • Is your name google?
  • You’re pretty and cute
  • Your hand looks heavy

Pick Up Lines are very similar to Compliments. You will see the date’s reply in the notification box too. Not every townie will react positively to pick-up lines and not all the time. There’s a chance that you might get rejected and the romance will be decreased.

Relationship Milestones: Friendship+ Romance+

  • Talk about having kids
  • Talk about meeting the family
  • Talk about meeting the friends
  • Talk about moving in together
  • Discuss future together

The Sim’s reaction to these interactions is more diverse, ranging from confidence to anxiety. And the reaction and buff will be different for different townies.

For example, if you talk about meeting friends, some Sims will feel worried while others will be confident.

Sometimes the notification will show the reply from your partner, but when you check out the buff, you will find out their real attitudes towards the suggestion.

“Kids?! Uhhhhhhh… I don’t know about that.”

Romantic: Friendship+ Romance+

  • Good morning, gorgeous (daytime)
  • Good night, beautiful (nighttime)
  • Let’s run away together
  • Show appreciation
  • You always make me smile

This category will have different options depending on the time. “Good morning” and “Good night” are based on the time of the day.

Romantic commitment will also bring an infatuated buff to put your Sim in a flirty mood.

Argue: Friendship– Romance–

  • Argue about career
  • Argue about cheating
  • Argue about children
  • Argue about chores
  • Argue about food
  • Argue about money
  • Argue about parents
  • Argue about partner’s excessive jealousy
  • Argue about pets
  • Argue about politics
  • Argue about religion
  • Argue about spending quality time together
  • Argue about what’s for dinner
  • Argue about woohoo
  • Argue because of jealousy
  • Argue for not listening

Arguments will reduce friendship and romance significantly, so you might not want to do this unless you want to break up with your partners. The Sims may get hurt or angry after the arguments.

Conclusion: The One With All The Romance Sims 4

The One With All The Romance mod greatly increases the fun in romantic interactions by adding more options and related reactions to them. It enriches the game with more dynamics and conversations in romantic relationships, rendering it more than just stats increasing. It certainly deserves a try.

The shortcoming of this mod is that the interactions sometimes are not closely related to the specific Sim’s traits or the situation. But this is the problem of the base game interactions too. So the mod offers something fun to explore, but you have to initiate them proactively as the player. It can be improved if certain situations can trigger the mood buff or dialogue, such as insufficient household funds.
