"When you play Hot Date, take your date shopping for stuff, buy whatever she wants, then take her out for dinner. When she talks about stuff you don't like, then you can go to the magazine and buy one. The magazines give your sims different interests, so buy the one that includes what she likes, and read until your interest points go up. Voila! Happy Simming! " - hottieguyslvr
