Sure it's a myth. Just like all the people who I know who have been monogamous with one and only one person their entire lives.

Holy Lands of Christendom wrote:It's quite simple: evolution. And as for monogamy, it's a myth. It was created in a deeply conservative post- second world war era that encouraged religious and sexual conformity. Humans will always be attracted to multiple humans because that is part of our nature. Throughout history, there have mistresses, concubines, slaves, etc that have filled this need. Socialization is the driving factor that keeps this strict monogamous style going.

1. The consolidation of material resources to better ensure the survival of your offspring and yourselves.
2. In the sexual economy, serial monogamy is a Nash equilibrium which minimizes sexual jealousy.
These seem to be the only purposes of a relationship. Am I wrong?
