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’m occupied with my cousins friend, she’s on my mind 24/7. Unfortunately she doesn’t feel the same way, it’s left me crushed and after thinking things were getting better, I’m now as low as ever.

@Haydon23 well aren't we all in the same boat!

@blasphemy666 I think past bad experiences make us build walls that some will never get over, ideally no strings attached would be the way, but I’m not like that. I’m guessing you aren’t either.

@Haydon23 I know I can't do no strings attached since I'm very emotional and sensitive person who fall in love with the littlest things in people but I'm a little hopeful about polyamory as far as sex is concerned... I also know that the moment someone would give me a little more importance or attention, i'll leave the rest of my partners and get hooked on to them only to repeat the cycle of heartbreaks and hook ups
