Soul breaking is something of an understatement. It's something that must be experienced to be fully understood. The woman in your example could easily have gone even further: joining the couple in the room, inviting even more women over... Until one experiences this, it all seems surreal and completely outside the realm of reality.

Sure. It is extremely disillusioning when you discover that common social and moral concepts like monogamy literally do not apply to certain people because of their financial, social or sexual capital or any combination thereof. You realize that given enough leverage you can ask for the moon with complete impunity and not only get it but have other people compete with each other to see who gets to provide it to you. It feels comical and surreal, like everything is some kind of joke.
It reminds me of the gervais principle.
