‘Just get her a nice salad’: These relationship tips are shared by Stardew Valley fans
Life on the farm leaves little time for relationship things.
Simulations reflect everyday life? Well… When a Stardew Valley fan describes their in-game relationship problems and other users rush to help, it’s more hilarious than true to life. Since we can probably no longer expect an update for the farming game and the next title from the developer is still a long way off, fans are just passing their time differently. And right now, that means they’re hopping on a trend of people sharing their relationship woes online. Except it’s their marriages that are at stake.
Sim marriage brings with it these challenges
Have you ever experienced a similar situation: the full-time job on a farm keeps you in check, but you still have to go fishing and take care of monsters in the mine? By the time you get home, your partner will have been asleep for a long time; and when you crawl out of bed the next morning with a sword in your hand, is it ever possible that you hit your loved one?
This is how a marriage can go in Stardew Valley and that’s exactly what user skcup describes on Reddit, but as a supposedly serious contribution in which advice is needed. Yes, relationships in simulations are often “a bit special”.

But the community is helpful: Other users immediately come to the rescue and give tips. Sensitive-Put-6416 has a simple piece of advice:
“Just get her a nice salad.”
This relates to gameplay mechanics: lettuce is one of the things that Leah, the artist skcup writes about, is particularly fond of. Shootingupfrosting, on the other hand, uses more realistic tips and recommends:
“[…] It sounds like you need to start making your family a priority. Why do you work in so many jobs? Are you fighting for enough money? Can’t your wife get a job to lighten your load a little?”
If you are looking for alternatives to Stardew Valley, here are some tips for you:
AdverseCereal, on the other hand, needs advice itself, because the situation looks pretty familiar to the Reddit user:
“Oh my god, that could be me. Are we married to the same person? LOL. What’s worse, lately I’ve been trying to expand my business and have started a second farm on a neighboring island. Some jobs require that I start extremely early in the morning (even before the ferry leaves). So I bought a little cabin here to be able to stay overnight and start at sunrise.”
The fan alludes to the DLC, in which we can explore an island and face new tasks there – which strongly tempts us to neglect the good old farm. You can get a bad conscience there. If you want to read more of these discussions about difficult marriages, check out Reddit.
