I have no clue about Celia, but I'm pretty sure Nami takes off no matter what. Even if you ignore her and don't improve your hearts with her she'll still leave temporarily.
Huh, that's weird. When my friend played AWL, she never befriended Nami, yet Nami never left the valley. In another playthrough, my friend gave Nami a few clay sculptures to the point in which she would turn to look at the MC, but she still stuck around after marriage. Maybe Nami only leaves the valley if you trigger all of her events, but give the blue feather to someone else? I just know that I've never seen her leave permanently myself, like she was always present in each chapter for my friend's game. Now I'm curious on what causes her to leave...
huh... Well! I will be playing again, so I will see I suppose! I will ignore the other 2 and only woo 1 of them. Now to decide between Muffy and Celia... >.>

I'm about 80% sure Nami is supposed to leave no matter what if you don't marry her (that is what I've always heard and what the internet keeps on saying.) However you can get her to come back permanently (I think,) by watching an event called Nami Retunes, which can be activated in chapter two.

Here's the event information:
Spoiler:
Nami's Return
Characters Involved: You, Griffin, Patrick, Gustafa, Cody, Carter, Tim, Nami.
This scene can only happen during chapter 2, and only if you're married to a girl other than Nami. Remember during the wedding scene, when Nami left the inn? Well, if you enter the bar after Patrick, Gustafa and Cody will suddenly come in after you.

The three of them will start talking about Nami, and Gustafa will tell everyone how much he misses her and wonders where she is right now.

While they're talking, Carter comes in and asks for a drink. He overhears the others talking about Nami, and then casually makes a comment that he saw her a little while ago. Cody, Gustafa, and Patrick freak out, bombarding Carter with questions as to where and when he saw her. Carter, taken aback, tells them that it was a little while ago, and he saw her around here. The three of them decide to leave and look for her. Once they're gone, Carter comments on how odd that was, and Griffin asks you if you'll stay or not. Say no and you'll automatically leave the bar. Once you exit, you'll meet up with the other three outside, who have just found Nami!! Everyone welcomes her back, and then Tim comes out of the inn to see what the commotion is about. He sees Nami and invites her to stay with him and his family at the Mitemi Inn again, telling her that her room is just as she left it. Nami decides to stay, and everyone leaves her alone, Gustafa saying that he'll have to write a new song just for this event, heh... You'll then walk up to Nami and talk to her. She'll tell you that it looks like she'll be staying here for a little while again, and you can either tell her that you're happy she's back (option 2) or that she should consider staying here forever (option 1). If you choose option 1, she'll be very happy.

In AWL, if you don't marry Nami, she will leave at the end of the Chapter 1. If you want to get her back early, there is a cutscene you can get in Chapter 2 mentioned above. If you don't trigger that cutscene, she will make a silent return in Chapter 3 and stay in the Valley henceforth. Of course if you're playing AnWL, she will never leave.

As for changes in unwed bachelorettes, most of it is quite subtle. Their dialogue is pretty polite throughout the game (unless you betrayed them with the promise of marriage. Then they say they don't want to see your face). I haven't noticed that many changes to their schedules other than Muffy. When I married Nami, I found that Muffy would visit the beach A LOT and do a lot of sighing animations at the ocean. May have been coincidental though

Celia turns bitter and takes it out on Marlin in the "Women change over time" cutscene in chapter 5.

Nami's feelings surface up in the Chapter 2 "Nami Returns" cutscene. If you say that YOU are glad that she is back (as opposed to saying EVERYONE is glad that she is back) Nami will look at you with a sad expression and then walk away.

Muffy has a lot of cutscenes in the girl version showcasing her trouble to find a serious relationship. She gets older and realizes its too late for her to have a family. She gets some feelings for Griffin in AnWL but in the boy version, AWL, Griffin tries to keep the relationship strictly father-daughter-like.

Curious, does any of this stuff happen with the bachelors when playing A(n)WL?
Like, do Gustafa, Marling and Rock have similar events/behaviours if you break their hearts? It's been a long time since I last played and honestly can't remember if I noticed anything weird after marrying.

Huh, interesting. I didn't know that she just comes back anyway, kind of makes me wonder why the Nami's Return event even exists when they could've simply had her returning be in a cutscene at the end of chapter two. I guess it's for the people who want her back as soon as possible.

I'm pretty sure you get a scene where they come to your house and chew you out, I don't know why there wouldn't be

They do change almost every other fundamental thing though. The game is shorter and the crops are nerfed odd the top of my head. Except the gen3 the looks like an eggplant for some reason. So while they did probably leave it the same, it's not like it's not possible given all the changes they made?

I've seen a video where someone had Muffy's affection raised high and then they married Cecelia. Muffy was so mad!

No. I've saved the game and then tried it. There is no such scene in AnWL.

I guess maybe having the guys go bitter and trash talk you was considered a bit inappropriate.

Because, you know, it's totally acceptable if you're a girl :wink:

An angry Gustafa would have been interesting. Although I doubt he would have gotten angry over that and just act sad instead.

Honestly I can't see anyone but Marlin getting angry. The other 2 would probably just be pouty.

I can somehow see Rock being oblivious to your marriage.

"Hey babe! Wanna go out tonight?"

"Rock, I'm married now."

"So, another day then?"
