Alien Domestication

The process by which humans selectively breed, genetically modify, or behaviorally train extraterrestrial organisms for utility, companionship, or agricultural purposes. It's the extension of the ancient human-animal partnership to the stars. This could involve tailoring a fast-breeding, methane-processing Martian "moss" to produce breathable air, or taming a hexapedal, docile grazer to serve as a beast of burden on a low-gravity world. It's making the alien useful and familiar, blurring the line between foreign life and a resource.
Example: In the Frontiers Saga, settlers on a new planet selectively breeding the native "Grunts" for their nutritious milk and sturdy hides is Alien Domestication. On a microbial level, it could involve culturing extremophile bacteria from Europa to use as living filters in a water reclamation plant.

Serial Monogamist 

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.
Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
