Since you are given a spouse, it wouldn't be necessary to have 'feelings' for each other (in their society!). They believe it would cause chaos. The Stirrings (aka feelings for others, like love) are cured by a pill so that won't happen. Besides, no one has feelings in The Giver, anyway, and they don't want to cause any feelings for anyone. The stirring pills are taken around the age of 12 for uncontrollable feelings, mainly "wanting". Stirring pills control the feelings. Think of it as a cure for puberty.
