Example

83 and 89 are "sexy" with each other, because they differ by 6. They are monogamously faithful, because neither is sexy with any other number.
71 is not "sexy" because it is not in A136207.
67 is "sexy" with both 61 and 73. Therefore, it is not monogamously faithful, since it has multiple numbers that it is sexy with.
43 is "sexy" only with 37. But it is not monogamously faithful, even though it isn't sexy with another number, because 37 is also "sexy" with 31, therefore "cheating" on 43 with 31.
