centripetal 

(noun) - a physical force acting upon an object that opposes centrifugal force, thus forcing an object to the center. The word originates from the roots centri (meaning center) and petal (like a flower). Centri.....petal, kind of like Sesame Street.
Nick tried to tell is friends at the Harley Davidson Cafe that centripetal was a word, but because nobody believed him, he had to go home and let google prove his point for him.

Centripetal acceleration 

The acceleration towards the center of the circle is known as centripetal acceleration.

An object traveling in a circular path may have a constant speed, but it is not traveling in a straight line. The velocity and direction are changing as velocity is a vector. A change in velocity means the object is accelerating.
Centripetal force provides the centripetal acceleration.

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...
