Brush up on your biology. We SO are not the only species that does that.
Just because people cheat doesn't mean our general mode of living, biologically speaking, is not monogamous.
Also, besides being wrong in your assessment of long-term relationships, as others have pointed out (just because YOU couldn't make them work for you so far doesn't mean they cannot work at all, even for you), you are also confusing long-term committed relationships, sex, and monogamy. It is possible to have a monogamous relationship with good sex, it is possible to have a committed relationship yet not be monogamous, etc.
