Make excessively adulterous Colonists be trait exclusive

I don't mind when a colonist tries to court an already married or taken colonist, or vis versa.
But there are certain situations when it is just ridiculous to the point of annoyance.

Like in my current run in which Shinichi started courting Tatyana on the day that Tatyana married Trumpet. ... And then proceeded to continue to court her constantly to the point of acquiring a -20 mood thought.

This is what I would consider ... excessive.
I think these kinds of excessive pursuits should only happen when the pawn has a specific Trait for it, and normal romantic pursuits should have the following filters:

1. Only X number of attempts at pursuing a romantic target per quadrum.
2. Only X number of attempts at pursuing a "taken" romantic target per quadrum.

Maybe even a sort of defensive move for the "taken romantic target":
If in a romantic relationship and courted by someone outside of that relationship X number of times within a single quadrum, then become annoyed and "Shame" the courting pawn.

A pawn shamed in this way will get a negative mood thought, and will not pursue the source of that shame for an entire quadrum(or longer?).

Hear, hear. Love all these. Shamed could last forever and I'd be happy.

I never got how pawns in the game could have such insanely bad reactions to such mundane things.
Then I came to the forums.
