If I fell for everyone who took a liking to me, I wouldn't have time to sleep.
People get divorced for a vast variety of reasons, not just boredom and people stay together for any number of reasons as well. To pidgeonhole those decisions is erroneous.
Attractions take many forms, not just physical. I have loved men considered ugly and I have been with men considered gorgeous, but if I can't connect mentally, or take the bad with the good, then nothing progresses. I think this is true of friendships of every form, not just lovers.
Society, unfortunately, has somehow taught us that loving more than one person at a time is patently wrong.This line of thinking holds us back, at least most of us, from experiencing the whole of love that can only come from opening ourselves up to a myriad of interpersonal experiences.
Love may come at random times, but I don't think the ones we love are picked at random. People come and go into our lives daily, but connections, while they may seem random, come rarely and with a purpose we are not always aware of immediately.
