Drifting Love! Really?

I'm sure most people really like this feature but I am so upset right now I just don't want to play.
I play my sims in rotation. I just returned to one of my oldest families to find the mother crying uncontrollably. She is very sad from drifting love. (From jealousy). This moodlet is supposed to last 17 hours. My first thought was, "what has her hubby been up to?" Turns out it wasn't him. In my last rotation I was playing my young adult scientist sim. I wanted her to test a serum so sent her out to the tourist area. All the sims there were my sims except for one. I didn't want to put my sims in danger so I focussed on the stranger. Enchanting introduction popped up so I decided to see what it was all about. She now has a romantic relationship with this sim but what I didn't know was that her aunt who was sitting with him also was romantic with him. Now I have a jealous sim, who by the way does not have the jealous trait.
Why are all my married sims in extra romantic relations? I have more single sims who have absolutely no romance and could use a bit.
I just wish there was a way to turn this off. If I want drama, I would like to choose it on my own.
Oh and to add misery she has the whim to kiss someone but of course it is greyed out!
No wonder there are so many single mother households. I may start to have a few more of my own.

I mean i like it when i intent the story to go like that or that the game has a sort of story progression household that i dont curently play with, BUT can we get the option? Can we just set which household have all the freedom, limited freedom or NO freedom at all for story progression. Limited should be normal, so no affairs, just living their regular life and making friends.
That fixes the issue.
It was secretly added in the Dine Out patch.
See i thought i was going mad when this interaction popped up because it wasn't something that was announced and i thought it may have been another thing i'd somehow missed ... ive accidentally clicked it twice and panicked because one of the times my sim actually preformed the action before i could cancel it >.<

It's easy to bury any emotion you don't want to be bothered about.

Drifting Love?
This title make me thing a Stuff Pack like
Yep, it is beyond annoying that playing rotationally allows your sims to have all these extra love interests. It always ruins the stories that I have inside my head for all my sims.

I created two Sims who are based upon characters in the book I'm writing--male and female Sims. I moved the male character into his house and the woman into the house next door. When I went to play the male Sim to make him get a promotion in his career, I found out that he had another love interest.
I moved the male Sim in with my female Sim immediately. When I tried to "Ask to be just friends", the option wasn't there, and she kept texting him about wanting to go out on a date. The next day off, he invited her over, was mean to her, flirted and made out with my female Sim in front of her.
After all of that, she is still in the Romantic Interests tab of the Social window, and she still calls to "hang out" with him. lol. Top it all of, she was just his acquaintance

Work together fine, AFAIK, just be sure you have the last updated versions of both. I'm using both here. (MC doesn't fill motives, UI Cheats does.)
If you use UI cheats to fix relationships, you'll still have a romance bar, if you set it to 0. If you use MC to do it, you can remove that bar totally. Both mods have ways to set relationship levels for whatever you like.
MC's Tuner mod has a setting for disabling Auto Flirting.
