You have likely noticed that the Sims 4 has a gameplay mechanic called sentiments. But, how much do you actually know about them? If the answer is little to nothing, you have come to the right place. There are currently 70 sentiments in the Sims 4, and we will use this post to explain every single one of them! So, let us get on with it… Here are all of Sim’s 4 sentiments listed!
The Sims 4 Sentiments: Positive & Negative!
The Sims 4 sentiments were first introduced in a Base Game update titled patch 103. They are a gameplay mechanic that allows Sims to have underlying feelings towards each other. These are gained by interacting with other Sims in positive or negative ways. After a Sim has achieved a sentiment towards another Sim, they will feel a certain way once the two are in the same space.
These sentiments come in both short and long-term effects. Which will ultimately affect how strong the emotions are when the two Sims are in the same space. A Sim can have up to 4 sentiments for another Sim, but once they gain a new sentiment after that, the weakest of the 4 will be replaced. There are currently 70 sentiments in the Sims 4. Approximately half of which are negative, whilst the other is positive. Now, let us have a look at them, shall we?

48. Grudge After Fight
Sim #1 said some things they did not mean. And, Sim #2 said some things they did not mean. In the heat of an argument, things were said, but nothing was resolved.

Whether the relationship shall continue or not, Sim #1 is gonna need some space for a while… Requires the Sims 4: Basegame.
53. Divorce Anger

54. Saddened
Cause I will love you unconditionally… Now, this is just sad. After they spent so much time building a strong foundation, a rift has caused their relationship to crumble into pieces.

55. Yoga Bitterness
Why does every single Sim at yoga practice have to show off their skills?! Just because Sim #2 knows how to do a handstand does not mean they have to show it off every 2 seconds.

56. Terrible Climb 1
It’s the climb… Well, that did not go as Sim #1 had hoped.

61. Failed Friendship
That is such a bummer… Sim #1 really valued their friendship with Sim #2. They were such good friends too, but now it has all unraveled… Ugh, Sim #1 feels like they fully failed at friendship. Does this mean they are a horrible friend? Requires the Sims 4: Snowy Escape.
62. Neglected
Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living… barely getting by… Oh, come on! Sim #1 always chooses to work instead of hanging out with Sim #2. When will this stop?! Seriously, by this point, Sim #2 is starting to feel neglected by their workaholic friend… Requires the Sims 4: Snowy Escape.
63. Failed Climb
That mountain climb was a total fail, and it is all of Sim #2’s fault.

Requires the Sims 4: Snowy Escape.

Well, it looks like this gig went south really quick. Though Sim #1 tried their best to deliver a wonderful room, Sim #2 thought it all looked hideous! Yes, Sim #2 is actually furious over this bad interior design… Let’s just hope they do not resort to suing Sim #1… They better keep their distance for a while. Requires the Sims 4: Dream-Home Decorator.
66. Scolding
That was so not cool Sim #2… You do not go around and scold people, that is so childish! Now, Sim #1 is just left really bitter after Sim #2 scolded them the other day. It might take a bit to get over this… Requires the Sims 4: Cottage Living.
67. You Are The Animal
This is so infuriating! Sim #2 traded away Sim #1’s beloved animal. How could they?! What could possibly make Sim #2 believe that trading away a family member was okay? No, Sim #1 is really mad at Sim #2, and they are gonna remain mad for quite some time… Requires the Sims 4: Cottage Living.
