Crush Overhaul

This mod revamps the way Sims develop crushes, making it less random and more logical by factoring in relationship status, traits, lifestyles, attraction levels, and social compatibility. It aims to make crushes feel more realistic and controllable compared to the vanilla system.

Core Changes

Committed Relationships: Sims in committed relationships are much less likely to develop new crushes (unless they have Noncommittal or Player traits).

Existing Crushes: Sims who already have a crush rarely develop another one.

Unflirty Trait: These Sims now have a very low chance (instead of zero) to develop crushes, supporting gray-romantic or aromantic play styles.

Lovebug trait → Increases crush chance by 50%.

Romantically Reserved trait → Only develop crushes on Sims they are at least good friends with.
