Smex without initiating romance

[JayRoz]

Hello. 
Would like to know if there is a way to become friends with a sim, then have a one night stand per se, then have them not start flirting with each other after the first night? 
For the most part I roleplay super unattractive characters that have it hard when it comes to getting someone to accept sex for the first time and the challenge to finally get someone to say yes without them being in a flirty mood is kinda fun...but defeats the purpose as the first time basically gives both sims a 100% success rate on any romance interactions done after that which can lead to marriages the next day. 
Long story short...is there a way to make that 100% into a 0% without needing to turn autonomous flirty off?

Some casual sex/no strings prompts for Sims with a high level of friendship would be a nice option.

 

Other Sims/NPCs have the ability to straight up ask you for sex when they feel like it, it would be nice if we could do the same...options for success could be based on friendship level, the NPCs preferences etc or just a flat out percentage success ratio ranging from 0%-100% in the settings if you want to control the outcome.

 

The "Hypersexual" lot trait would fit like a glove for this kind of thing.

You can become Casual Sex Partners with a Sim and it shouldn't raise the romance bar.

I'm assuming that is an option an option in the relationship section of the wheel/pie menu, or does it just stem from regularly "making a move" on them?

 

Also, does it depend on traits like "polyamorous" and "Casual Romantic?

 

I've never really thought about it or looked into this until now...I usually just romance them with all my traits, buffs and charms, get what I want...then avoid them until the romantic satisfaction/pink bar fizzles out.

Same. I just get what I want then use mccc to remove the romance bar...which actually doesn't do much as they will still start flirting with each other again as soon as they meet. 
Never saw this casual partner thing. Gonna have to do some digging.

The Casual Romance trait is a WW Attribute found in the WW menu.

You can do all the romance interactions within that menu and it's pretty much a copy of the Romance Menu.

 

If you want NPCs to be less aggressive, or willing, use the WW Cheats: Always Accept: 0 bars.

 

Then in Sex Settings/Sex Relationship Settings/Player to NPC Relationship Modifier

Set to -2.0/-3.0 to start.(Lower negative numbers makes it more difficult for player-npc sex) 

(setting might need to be adjusted a bit up or down depending on your other settings and traits)

(Note: Sims with the Sexually Alluring or Unique Appearance traits get a small boost to relationship scores and will cheat the setting above)

 

Manual Casual Romance or Romance interactions might still trigger sex but stranger sims usually won't ask for sex every 5 min.

You'll need to increase your friendship bars with npcs before they become available unless they have those other traits.

Wow. I skip past that trait regularly and hit the polyamorous trait without even thinking about it...I've just read the pop-up that comes with it...it seems to encompass most of what the OP and myself were talking about. There is always something else to discover about WW, it really is an extensive mod that I need to spend more time digging into!

 

Cheers for all the info.

Hi, thanks for the response. Unfortunately this does not solve the main issue though. 
Then again I'm just being fussy lol. Overall it just irked me that first time sex led to all romance interactions being fully accepted from that point on no matter how hard you made that first time for them. Even after asking to be a casual partner thing and even after just doing woohoo with the casual romantic trait. 
Gonna look into more settings and simply turn off autonomous flirty if I can't find anything. 
Thanks for the info.

Well I'd forgot about the games Autonomous Flirty setting because I've had it disabled with MCCC like forever.

I also disabled Auto Proposals, Auto Marriage, Auto Move-Ins, etc.

Neighborhood Stories and NAP Voting are also disabled along with some others.

 

I'd rather use Mods to control things than let the game run crazy with EA features.
