Sims naturally get the Flirty mood after a few successful romantic interactions, and having the Romantic or Erratic trait makes it happen more often. You can also use certain items and actions to speed up the process.
Mirrors
Brushing teeth or freshening up in front of a mirror can trigger the Flirty buff. This trick also works if your Sim practices a speech, which helps level up Charisma at the same time.
Watching Romance on TV
Romance movies and the Romance channel can inspire the Flirty mood. Sims who watch romantic content often want to feel that same excitement in their own lives.
Steamy Showers
Taking a steamy shower in a shower cabin can trigger Flirty pretty quickly. Make sure to choose the Steamy Shower option to get the full effect.
Research Pickup Lines
Having your Sim research Pickup Lines online is a quick way to trigger the Flirty mood. Spending time browsing these tips makes them feel confident and romantic.
Flower Arrangements with Roses
Flower arrangements scented with roses can subtly boost your Sim’s mood and make them feel Flirty.
Flirty Heart Cookies
Flirty Sims can bake Flirty Heart Cookies on the stove. Eating one gives them the Flirty mood, and you can keep extras in the fridge for up to ten days. If your Sim is already Flirty when making these cookies, they’ll become Very Flirty.
Cupid’s Juice
Cupid’s Juice is a special drink that raises a Sim’s Flirty mood. Sims with high Mixology skills can make it themselves. If a Sim is already Flirty, drinking it will make them Very Flirty. Even Sims without a high Mixology skill can enjoy it as long as they start in a Flirty state.
Steamy Ginseng Tea
A cup of Steamy Ginseng Tea will keep your Sim Flirty for about four hours. It’s a simple way to get that mood going without extra effort.
Flirty Paintings
If your Sim is in the Flirty mood, they can create Flirty Paintings. Admiring their own work will reinforce the Flirty mood, making it easy to keep them feeling romantic.
Use Special Crystals
Jewelry crafted from Diamond, Fire Opal, or Ruby gives Sims the Flirty mood, but only while they’re wearing it. Gemstones work differently. They don’t have to be worn, but Sims need to be nearby for the Flirty effect to activate.
Placing Flirty gemstones in a room can influence any Sim who spends time there, while jewelry only affects the Sim actually wearing it.
You’ll need the Crystal Creations stuff pack to use these special crystals.
Eating Flutterberries
Flutterberries are a fun but powerful way to make your Sim flirty. Eating them sets their heart aflutter and can trigger the Flirty mood almost immediately.
You Sim will hit on any nearby Sims, and this can spark unexpected romantic interactions.
These berries grow on the Tree of Emotions, a special plant found in Selvadorada if you have The Sims 4: Jungle Adventure.
Special Potions
In The Sims 4: Realm of Magic, spellcasters can learn how to brew special potions that affect emotions and social interactions.
Two of those potions are especially useful for romance. The Potion of Alluring Aura surrounds the Sim with a subtle pheromone cloud that gives a small Flirty boost.
The Potion of the Transcendent Charmer goes a step further. Drinking it gives the Power of Love effect, which also adds a Flirty mood and makes romantic interactions more likely to succeed.
Trying Out Outfits
Changing your Sim into an outfit they love can make them Flirty. The better they like the new look, the more likely they are to get that Flirty moodlet.
Using these items and actions together makes it easy to keep your Sims feeling flirty and ready for romance whenever you want.
Happy Simming!
