And yes I think society has a great deal to do with it. Where does the basic principle come from in being exclusive?
In the primate world it's for breeding purposes only.
So when did humans decide that being monogamous was a moral decision? I'm not wanting to argue here, but bec of our harsh society rules there's many people out there that are dead inside, not really living, bec what they want is not condoned by society.
Why would the original poster even ask if it's ok that they look or talk to other people? Bec they've been taught (by society) it's not really acceptable. Maybe taboo.

I don't know why she asked. Perhaps she feels that talking to other people out of loneliness is not productive or maybe she realizes her current partner isn't the best choice hence she is looking for other men. I don't know
I don't know about society. I am 51 and lived on two continents and society never pressured me to conduct my relationships in any particular manner. I do whatever the heck I want. I never felt society made me do anything I don't want to (within laws of course like I have to pay taxes lol)
