Social butterfly

Social butterfly is a social trait featured in The Sims 3: Showtime. It conflicts with the Loner and Shy traits.

Social Butterfly Sims aren't happy unless they're socializing, and will do just about anything to be the center of attention.

Attributes

• Social butterflies will do anything to get noticed, and they never hesitate to join group conversations.
• Social butterflies may get depressed and get the "It's like I'm Invisible" moodlet if not socializing enough.
• Social butterflies may revel in attention and get the "It's all about Me" moodlet.

Player Notes

• Social butterflies suffer from a very fast decay of the social motive, autonomously causing them to initiate chats, group chats, or, if they have other social traits, use the socials from their other traits.
• The social butterfly trait forces the Sim to act and play like an anti-loner; not socializing for a long time randomly causes a -15 for 6 hours moodlet, while socializing can cause a +15 for 12 hours moodlet.
• When the moodlet "It's Like I'm Invisible" appears, sad music plays for a few seconds.
• If the Social motive gets extremely low, a social butterfly may autonomously talk to items or furniture if no other Sims are around.
• Social Butterflies strongly benefit from undertaking a Communications major while studying at college.

Trivia

• In The Sims 2: FreeTime there is a collectable butterfly called Socialus Butterfly.
