Okay. Back to biology.
Our species doesn't instinctually form lifetime or even long term exclusive pair bonds heterosexual or otherwise. Few animal species do.
If we did we'd all still be pair-bonded for life to the first person with whom we mated and never look at anyone else, fall in love with anyone else, be tempted by anyone else, fantasize anyone else or actually mate with anyone else.
We might not ever look at porn either... or romance stories.
Short term and mid-term pair bonds are all that's required for reproductive success. The shear number of divorces and multi-parent families proves this.
In my experience it is unrealistic to expect humans not to lie, cheat and steal--and that's just in the world of relationships.
