Wants and fears

A Want and a Fear are aspects of life present in The Sims 2. Wants indicate something that a Sim well, wants. These wants can include having a child, wanting to get married, or just speaking with another person. A fear however, is the downside to life. A fear severely affects a Sim's mood. When a fear is experienced, Sims loose Aspiration points (the severity dependent on how high the fear was, via minus points). Wants help Sims gain Aspiration points.
