Textsomnia

The inability to get a decent night's sleep because of one's self-imposed obligation to read and reply to every single late night text. This thus results in a long drawn out dialogue which probably would have only lasted about 5 minutes over the phone.

An ailment often experienced by people who feel so self-important that must respond immediately to every form of technological communication.
Boss: Why are you so lethargic and lackluster at the office today?

Employee: I'm suffering from textsomnia. I couldn't get a wink of sleep last night because my friend kept texting me about the most random stuff...like Moby Dick...and floggings...and the caloric count of coconuts.

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...
