To me, you can't stop falling or being in love. You can deny it, or try to bury those feelings inside of you, but you can never truly stop yourself from ever falling in love.

I am not sure that it's possible to prevent yourself from falling in love while remaining engaged with the person. Separation may be the best case if you don't want to love someone.

That's difficult...but just let them go. Don't talk to them or think about them in ways you shouldn't. Avoid their social media and their friends. Tell yourself not to do it and eventually you won't.

I don't think falling in love is something you can stop. If you really love a person you can't just stop those feelings. It is natural desire that comes from within you and stopping it is almost like just not being you. If for some reason, it seems as though the person isn't worth your love, then focus on those aspects that makes them unworthy and try to realize that they aren't worth your efforts. This you way will gradually realize their true worth and "fall out of love." If you are scared to fall in love in fear you might be hurt, my advice would be that love comes with its ups and downs and whether you or not you decide to give someone a chance shows your feelings for them.

I understand it can be scary but it’s not always something you can stop from happening. You can not always control your feelings and as scary as they may seem, love can be a wonderful thing. However if you feel like the relationship is damaging to you physically, mentally or emotionally, removing yourself from the situation might be the best move forwards. You must always do what you feel is best for you and your mental and physical health. Your health must always come first and foremost and if you would like to talk more about your relationship, there are lots of listeners here to help you.

I used to be like you even a few months ago. In recent times, I have been able to tackle that alacrity. Once you start to love yourself and get to understand yourself and your psychological needs, you will become more aware of your needs. We fall for people easily only when we are propelled by our loneliness, not by our good sense. I am telling this from my personal experience, the pickier you become when it comes to people, the better it shall be for you in the longer run. Love shall come to you in its best form only when you are not waiting for it.
