Worth The Effort 

Of or pertaining specifically to relationships, a person who proves themselves worthy of making additional effort to maintain the relationship current. This person may be worthy for many reasons: extraordinary looks, sexual prowess, great talent or exceptional social status.
1. A woman who maintains retro looks, can have a firm grasp as a geek, can cook pie and all whilst also being sexy and loving, is clearly "worth the effort".
2. A beautiful, talented and sexy girl who buys you a Mamiya for your birthday is clearly "worth the effort".
3. A beautiful, intoxicating, talented and awarded woman who is ungrateful, passive and demands a huge amount of caring, rather than attention is probably not "worth the effort".

The Old Joanie Effort

When an individual knows that a certain task is, by all practical reasoning, impossible to complete, still makes a meagre attempt to complete said task out of pity or moral obligation.
Kory agrees to go to prom with Joanie to save her from going with a creepy kid named Stuart. Later that night, Joanie wants to put out but Kory knows he can't quite get it up. Still, he resigns to giving it the old Joanie effort.

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...
