There are some things that can't be explained by science. Our society relies on scientific studies for all the answers, but science has yet to tell us what causes some cancer patients to miraculously heal and some to waste away while recieving the best treatments. We don't have cures for cancer or vaccines for AIDS. We still haven't found the missing link.
Don't let "studies" take away your faith in love and suck the joy out of your life.
But, before we start, the word believe must be defined. Monogamy is something that does not exist physically in our world. It is an idea, maybe even an ideal to some. Because of this we must use the following definition:
v. intr.
To have confidence in the truth or value of something.
Shauna makes a good point, but I don't think that in this sense science sucks the joy out of life, it simply causes us to question the "truths" we are presented. And, lack of information or lack of evidence does not prove something to be right or wrong.
Anyways…
There's no denying that all of us humans have the instinct to breed. Some of us suppress it, and some of us embrace it. There are also those of us on both sides that take said points to the extreme. There are some who can have sex with love, and some who can have sex without love. But is there one person who we are meant to be with? If there is, how can we know? Can we claim we are monogamous creatures when we have the urge to have sex with more than one person

"There is something which makes us want to be in love. Now, this is a hard argument to make, I know. But I would argue that people are, like I said, initially drawn to love until something traumatic or life-changing causes them to rethink their position. This could lead them to conclude that they should no longer be monogamous, and to give up on love
