The answer to whether siblings can date each other in Sims 4 is generally no, unless there is a glitch, if a Sim shows up in another Sim’s family tree, they usually cannot have a romantic relationship. This restriction is in place to prevent inbreeding and to maintain a sense of realism in the game, but players can modify relationship options to allow for such interactions through mods like WickedWhims.
