is it stupid to fall in love or to catch feelings in general?

I know that one can't control it...but given the amount of pain we all go through because of love, doesn't it make more sense to only have no strings attached relationships or at least live a polyamorous lifestyle so that one does not get too pre-occupied with a single individual?

I've loved and lost and I'm a little polyamorous, but once you've truly loved, you'll be hooked and it will always be a goal.

@MrK007 I have fallen in love and had a horrible heartbreak and I dread it now. I mean i can still fall in love, but not on purpose...its not going to be a goal for me. I think I just want people to give me attention and when they do come close, all I can think of is- "abort! abort!"

@blasphemy666 That's understandable. Heartbreak is a terrible thing.
