hushband 

A henpecked, meek-ish man, married or not, in a relationship, who lets the woman do all the talking or decision making, and is not allowed to have opinions of his own.
Mary: "Susan, this is my husband, George." George is standing slightly behind Mary.
Susan, "Hi, George, how are you?"
George: "Hi, I'm...."
Mary, "Oh, he's fine."
George: "Yes, yes I am ...."
Mary: "George is a CPA. He is opening up his own practice."
Susan: "Really? How nice. George, where will your office be?"
Mary: "We haven't decided yet. You know, men. You have to do everything for them."

Susan, embarrassed and uncomfortable, tries again:

"George, where did you go to school?"
George: "I went..."
Mary: "Oh, he went to (name any college)."
Susan (to herself): "Oh, oh. Poor George is a hushband."

Susan to Mary and George: "Excuse me. I see the person who I'm supposed to meet. "George, nice talking to you."
Mary: "Nice talking to you, too. C'mon George, let's go."

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...
