  Filling Up Your Skills At Moms

  Ok, at the start of the game you end up at your moms house. The cheat that i discovered is that as long as you keep the gamecube on your energy, hygeine, comfort and social never drop a certain amount. So what you do is you stay at your moms place slowly filling up each skill (remember not to turn the system off) this may take quiet a long time but in the end it pays off because all you need to care about is building up your relationships. This cheat may not work for you but it did for me the two times i started a new game.

  How to Get Married

  To get married your must fall in love with someone by first talking to make them a family friend, and then by dancing with them (this works the best). THIS PERSON MUST BE FROM FREE STREET 1, 2, OR 3! IF THEY AREN'T FROM FREE STREET 1, 2, OR 3, THIS WILL NOT WORK! Once you are in love with them at 100, and vice versa, invite them over the phone. You will have to serve breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They will eat and then you can click on them. One of the social options will be to propose. This option will probably not be at the top. If they accept, you will have a wedding. Keep in mind that the wedding cost 1,000 Simoleons. Also, if they accept, they will go with you to wherever you move to. Have a happy marriage!
