Sims hugging each other representing the More Best Friends mod by LittleMsSam
This mod lets Sims have more than one best friend by changing the “Become Best Friends” interaction cooldown and removing exclusivity.

More Best Friends by LittleMsSam is a tuning mod for The Sims 4 that allows Sims to have more than one “best friend.” It changes the limitations on the “Become Best Friends” interaction so that Sims aren’t restricted to having only one BFF.

Key Features
The mod lowers the cooldown time for the “Become Best Friends” interaction so it reappears more often. It modifies tuning so that the exclusivity of the Best Friends relationship is removed, meaning multiple Sims can be Best Friends with the same Sim simultaneously.

Mod Release Date
Originally released fairly early (around 2019-2020), updated to confirm it’s working with later patches. Became obsolete after Patch 1.96.365 when EA included the feature by default.

Gameplay Role / Impact
The mod improves social dynamics by letting Sims form multiple best friendships, which makes relationship-driven gameplay more flexible. This is especially useful for players who want more realistic social networks or storytelling with large groups of friends.

Community Feedback
Many players appreciated the change, saying it fixed a longstanding annoyance that your Sim could only pick one best friend. Some report needing to uninstall it when they update the game because the feature becomes redundant once patched.
