the new expansion pack adds a Downtown area, with is like a new neighborhood, but it allows shops and clubs. your sim can get there by taking a cab, but can't sleep or take a shower.. this makes it so they have to leave after a little while.
the key to the downtown is the NPC's. if you build a stove, you get a chef npc, a dishwasher = busboy. hotdog stand = vendor, DJ booth = DJ. you just order the food, they make it, you dance and they take care of the music.
The point is you have more time to entertain a "Date" and eventually take them home for some "Playing"
Yes, dating.. you call them on the phone or walk up to them and Ask them out. if they are part of your family, you can not control them while on a date.
also, the relationship bars are REALLY different.. you have a daily bar and lifetime bar. this makes it so you can't meet someone, have Sex with them (by means of the heart bed or love tub) and then marry them in one day.
really, if you haven't gotten all the expansion backs, you should. i have spent $160 on the sims already.
