Psychic bond doesn't just result in the {{+|12}} mood from the bond itself. Pawns will immediately have +75 [[opinion]] with a new highmate lover (beauty, being lover). With no other opinion modifiers, this results in another {{+|7}} ''Opinion of my <lover/spouse>'' moodlet. And this isn't including the [[Lovin]]' that the pawns will do. Age matters - elderly pawns won't do nearly as much Lovin'. On the other hand, a younger couple might have to deal with [[reproduction|pregnancy]]. [[Research#Fertility Procedures|Fertility Procedures]] can be researched if you want to stop that. Highmates can be paired with depressive or otherwise low-mood pawns to ease their worries. You can also pair them with an important colonist, who you don't want going into [[mental breaks]]. | Psychic bond doesn't just result in the {{+|12}} mood from the bond itself.

If you don't want a specific highmate in your colony, it's best to eliminate them quickly. Highmates romance quickly and with 100% success, meaning they'll be "stuck" to another colonist in no time. | If you don't want a specific highmate in your colony, it's best to eliminate them quickly.
