1.2 The Break Up


Kind of foreboding to begin a post titled 'the break up' with a marriage, isn't it? Well, that's kind of the point.

Jamie and Rubisel are married quickly and without fanfare. Jamie cries afterwards, obviously shocked that it actually happened. Rubisel seems to be thinking about what he's done. Silly man.


He's not a bad dad... even if his idea of babysitting is watching the toddler twins from the newly installed hot tub.


Of course, Jamie and Rubisel eventually christen the tub, resulting in yet another baby. They both had a wish for it! Rubisel is really trying to make me hate the fact that I have to kick him to the curb.


Speaking of babies, the last baby born, Alex, is having a birthday party. He's the possible heir. She's pregnant with her fourth and final child to Rubisel in this picture.


One of Rubisel's many women gets invited to the party and throws a fit at being faced with his progeny. She makes a scene.


Rubisel confesses to Jamie--in the midst of the party--before she finds out from anyone else. I'm guessing he finally realized all those constant wishes for Jamie and babies meant he was in love. Too late, buddy!


Jamie complains about her lout of a husband to her friend, Xias the alien. He is still learning about what the sims call 'fashion.'


Rubisel tries to smooth things over by suggesting Jamie take a break and go to the spa. He's evicted to the pool house.


After a few days of stewing over it, Jamie breaks it off on a particularly frigid Spring morning (I only have Summer and Spring enabled here.) Note how ridiculously pregnant she is.

Rubisel is sent packing and Xias moves in to give her a hand and learn more about sims.


Xias is incredibly helpful to have around. He takes perfect care of newly born Nina, the last child Rubisel and Jamie had together. Nobody seems to mind that their dad moved out. I guess everyone knew he was kind of a player and besides, he was replaced by an alien. What kid doesn't like aliens?
