Dellertrosexual 

(n): An individual who is a self proclaimed metrosexual but in reality is just barely shy of qualifying as a full on out of the closet homosexual. A Dellertrosexual will use the term metrosexual as a means of hiding his true nature. In most cases the Dellertrosexual eventually does come out of the closet later in life. Dellertrosexuals are often caught wearing a bit of makeup, such as eyeliner and mascara, prompting the question amongst his peers: "maybe he was born with it...but maybe its Maybelline".
While a metrosexual may shave his chest., a Dellertrosexual will proudly admit to shaving his arms as well.

A metrosexual is generally well dressed, while a Dellertrosexual will change his shirt often more than three times before leaving the house, just for a night out with the guys.

Example:

A: "Is your friend Eric gay?"
B: "We aren't sure...we have never caught him in the act. He claims to be a metrosexual"
A: "More like a Dellertrosexual..."

A: "Ricky Martin finally came out of the closet"
B: "About time he stopped being a Dellertrosexual"

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...
