adpauseum 

It is the bittersweet moment when the advertisements start on cable television and you select the pause button on the remote of the digital recorder. This moment usually occurs right at a poignant time of what you are watching and you feel mad that you have to wait but glad that you can pause, wait and then forward pass the commercials and end up in real time.
While watching a dramatic movie and just when you will find out "who did it", the commercials come on, bad ones at that, and instead of having to watch them or hear them, you pause and listen to the quietness of life, meditate, or converse with your partner. Then you fast forward at triple time. Ahh, adpauseum.

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...
