Socializing
Chat is chat: friendly banter that improves relationships but doesn’t involve
serious discussion or the exchange of important information. Chatting increases
your friendship levels with neighbors. They’ll like you the better for it – and will
therefore be more willing to trade important information later, if and when they
have it.

Kiss, Hug, Slap
These interactions work much like chat to affect relationships. Depending on
the recipient, a Kiss or a Hug may not have the expected or desired effect.
Note: Whatever the particular form of expression, as you interact with a
neighbor, your relationship with that person will get better or worse. Watch for

Time
The clock is very useful. Time controls the actions of the
people of Wisteria Lane, too. They go to work or school,
they run errands, and they attend meetings and social events. All of this
coming and going affects who you can interact with, and when, and who
will be away for the day when you decide to do some sneaking.
