The irrationality of love and/ or infatuation drives humans' imagination and curiosity. I mean, of course, the purpose of science is to try to understand everything in the universe. But once an answer to a long-time question has been found, what's next? I think a great part of the fun of life is searching for answers, and with love, I don't think there are any right or wrong answers. So no matter how you pick and dissect the matter of love, you're still lost and confused, leaving you searching for more, because it's all irrational. Like in Pertarch's case, he used all his curious and idealistic energy of Laura towards his poems. If he had of known who she really was, would he still be infatuated with her? And without infatuation, would he have written the way he did? Okay, I'll stop questioning now..lol. But, anyways like John and Caitin said, it's great to have a blind idea of something, it gives hope, and the more you pick at irrationality of love, the less fun it becomes.
