My husband and I just had a discussion about monogamy yesterday and how some animals mate for life. You should google oxytocin and see some of the studies that are being done right now with it. Oxytocin is sometimes jokingly referred to as the love hormone and they think it holds the key to monogamy.

I do believe monogamy is possible. I also believe that it takes a lot of hard work focusing on your partner's needs and staying connected to them and the relationship. Too many people are too lazy to do the work. It's easier to say "I don't know what happened? or I couldn't help myself. or I was drunk." than to walk away from temptation.
Thanks for this!
