“Everyone remembers a Beloved Sim – their relationships never fade.”
Once earned, friendships won’t decay — ever. This makes all future relationship-based aspirations dramatically easier. You can focus on goals without worrying about that dreaded “you’re drifting apart” message.


Extra Tips

  • Phone calls don’t maintain friendships face-to-face is key until you get the reward.
  • Friendships decay fast in early stages, so you might hear that “whoosh” often. Don’t worry Beloved fixes it all!
  • Buy the Observant reward trait early it reveals traits on first meeting, letting you tailor socials for max success.
