Then your ex wasn't a monogamist and nothing you could do will make her one. So what in the world is the point of being upset at her not being a monogamist when you know it isn't something that she was capable of. Square pegs and round holes and all that.
My ex cheated on me twice that I know of. The first time was about a year into our relationship and he begged and pleaded and promised he wouldn't do it again. The second time, about four years later, I dumped him, but for about six months after the dumping, he begged and pleaded and promised he wouldn't do it again... again. Meanwhile, he was screwing my good friend's roommate.
Sometimes cheaters are the ones insisting on monogamy. Mine was. If he had proposed an open relationship from the get-go, I would have either considered it and possibly gone along with it, or I would have said no. Then he would have been free to pursue whatever he wanted, and so would I. Win/win, right? But, nope! He even got ridiculously upset when, after four years of our relationship and no discussion about it, his brother asked us when we were finally going to get married. I said I wasn't really interested in marriage, and the ex used that as an opportunity to sulk for months.
People are allowed to get upset when their partners promise, or even insist on things, but can't trust them to follow through. I honestly don't understand how you could be so flippant about it.
Nolite te bastardes carborundorum.
