Classic bear trap 

A deception or misunderstanding that results in a classic rookie/ basic error that is typically made by an individual with a rudimentary understanding of a given task or activity. The individual is tricked by and falls into the ‘classic bear trap’, being deceived into making this error thinking that it will be beneficial for them, but instead results in negative effects on the individual making the mistake.

A ‘classic bear trap’ is in effect the cause of a common rookie mistake.
Example 1: A guy is getting back with his ex for the third time even though she cheated on him twice. The act of her making herself available to him and pretending she wants only him is a classic bear trap for the guy, as he is deceived into thinking she still loves him and won’t sleep with other men.

Example 2: A straight male in Nana Plaza, Thailand, paying an attractive bargirl - who appears female - for sex. This is a classic bear trap as the straight male expects the bargirl to be female, when they are in fact a ladyboy, and thus may end up being pegged which does not typically align with a straight males sexual preferences.

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...
