Jealous spouse. Am I locked out of friendship goals and achievements?

[Magpie]

My character is getting married tomorrow, and already my spouse-to-be is giving me the jealousy dialog. I would like to continue to raise my friendships with villagers, as I've only been focusing on relationships for a season and a half so far.

Is marriage supposed to lock you out of reaching Grandpa's goals and other achievements?

[I Kinda Fail]

I don't think you need to befriend all the bachelors for that achievement. Just people like Linus, Pam, Gus, Mayor Lewis, etc.

So you can ignore the other 11 bachelors.

I did think it was a bit silly that your spouse gets jealous when you give gifts to other marriage candidates. Just because you're close with someone, that doesn't mean you're cheating. Am I not allowed to have friends? Lol. I do kind of wish you would only get the jealousy dialogue if you gifted a marriage candidate with a bouquet and initiated a romantic relationship with them, because clearly, that should make your spouse upset. Up to eight hearts should be assumed as friendship.

I thought I could take my time and learn the backstory of the other villagers. :( As it is, I waited into my third year to make friendships, and haven't now really learned much about everyone.

So is it best to put marriage last? I needed a couple more points for Grandpa, and so pushed marriage along to help with that.

I mean, you can still talk to them, and give them birthday gifts. It's slower, sure, but not by TOO much.

And I could be wrong, but I think it only matters if you talk to your spouse... So maybe just choose one day per week to gift everyone, and then don't talk to them before bed?

[Magpie]

Oh, that's interesting. And it's good to know I can keep up friendships with just talking and birthday gifts. It's like spinning plates, trying to keep so many friendships steady, and still finding time to take care of the farm, mining, chopping, or fishing.

Even after marrage you can still befriend others, and you can even at 8 hearts give the flowers then make other bachelor/ettes girlfriends and boyfriends and get them all to 10 hearts. I think at 10 hearts the relationshop doesnt go down over time (unless bad gifts or watever)

Now I don't know what to think. You mean without giving gifts, right?

I have almost the whole town at 10 hearts. I still give the people I have max hearts on gifts. They send me stuff in the mail, why not give them something to say thanks? haha :)

How on earth do you give flowers to single villagers while married? Does the jealous complaining affect your marriage hearts?

As for the other villagers, I'm not trying to maintain max hearts, I'm trying to increase hearts still.

P.S. I thought Emily was creative, unconventional, a free spirit. Then to hear her jealous words on the day before the wedding...I was utterly shocked.

Who cares if she's jealous?

Go ahead and https://youtu.be/7ydZEe4CC8s

Not like she can leave you and take half your stuff and the kids. She'd get nothing and you keep both the kids. Then you can wipe her memory at a shrine and make her love you again. Tell her to behave or you'll turn the kids into doves. 1.1 made the game much darker like that.

I throw gifts around like an idiot and neither I nor my spouse cares. Just gift them all. It doenst matter.

[Magpie]

Thanks, everyone!

I've never gotten the jealousy dialog. Do all the spouses do it?
