Sociotech 

Sociotech refers to a class of research that encompasses both social science and information systems approaches to gain insight into human use of technology (e.g., how people's behavior is shaped by the change to, or creation of, technologies, or how technical systems evolve through influence by individual, group, or social forces). Much sociotech research is focused on improving military and intelligence community operations.

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...
