Unlike breeding dogs, macaws form long term commitments to their mates. So once a good pair bond is formed, it is generally not desirable to break up the birds. In addition, male birds cannot be used for stud services, fertilizing the eggs and then being removed back to his role as a pet. Nor in turn can the female be used for hatching out a clutch, then returned to her former pet status. So once the commitment is made to use your pet bird as a breeder and find it a mate, you have made a commitment to bred that bird, normally for the rest of its life.

They do mate with other birds for life, yes. But if we are talking about a macaw with a human being (their owner). They can be fickle and suddenly change their minds and hearts and switch their sights.

It depends on whether he's a "playa" or not, which reflects partly on his moral upbringing. You also have to factor in what kind of car he drives, if he's good looking, what he does for a living and all that.
