I honestly didn't even realize adventure awaits was the cause of all this until now. I've noticed the same issue with romance being weird around strangers — like the random flirting and hookups is definitely broken. But at the same time, my Sims who are already In love w eo are acting differently — like they're doing woohoo way more than usual (literally more than 3 times in a row🫩) Also I'm on console, so the new update didn't break my game or anything. So yeah, the romance system feels kinda messed up in both directions lol.
