Well, uh, yeah, marriage has been a one-on-one arrangement, other than the multiple wives that are found throughout the Old Testament. Abraham screwing Hagar caused a world of hurt, though.
And Solomon's wives kinda screwed him over, too.

Never mind David’s missteps with Bathsheba and what he was moved to do to her husband. (And David already had six wives before her.) Deuteronomy 17:17 was an explicit command against polygamy, particularly for kings, but for everyone.
