True. Walt making meth is a FAR worse crime than whatever Ted is doing. No argument there.RedDeadFred said:Hardly shady compared to what Walt was doing.

I honestly don't understand how people can even remotely like her. She's nothing but a **** for the sake of being a ****.
I can understand being pissed off at Walt seeing as how he told so many lies to her. But I felt that she went a bit too far when she slept with Ted. It also proves that she's a hypocrite as well, as Ted was also doing some shady things to keep his business afloat.So while agree that she is definitely unforgiving and at times quite mean to Walt. You should notice that in flash backs and the beginning of the series, she was clearly a very loving wife who thought of her husband as a great man. He shattered that. Not her. I'm not saying that Walt is pure evil (I was still partially rooting for him even at his worst moments), but any anger or unreasonableness that Skyler has towards him is completely justified IMO.why wouldn't she sleep with Ted. It was the only way besides telling the DEA that she could think of to hurt Walt. She wanted this potentially dangerous (she doesn't even know the half of it) criminal out of her house and away from her children. If I was married and found out that my spouse was involved in this shit too, I would probably turn them in but if not, I would do anything I could think of to get them away from my kids. Drug dealing is a dangerous business and is probably going to make a person some enemies. You don't want those enemies knocking on your family's door.

Walt murdered people. Walt murdered people. Walt. MURDERED. People. WALT. FUCKING. MURDERED. PEOPLE.
And you think....
Skyler went TOO FAR by sleeping with Ted?! What the hell kind of logic is THAT supposed to be??!!
I find hate for Skyler to be fucking mind-boggling. Making meth and killing people? Understandable! Extra-marital affair? Kill that *****!
I just...What....HOW?
And don't tell me "He was doing it for his family, so it's OK!" Don't kid yourself. The show goes out of it's way to prove how dumb that argument is, when Walt Jr. starts getting money with his web site, or when some rich friends fucking OFFER HIM MONEY. Right away the show demonstrates that Walt is doing it because of his own stupid pride, NOT for his family. If Walt was REALLY selfless, he would've just swallowed his pride and taken the damn money from Elliot.
And before you say "She just did it to be a *****, at least Walt had a reason!"
1. Making meth for money is STILL much worse then cheating for no reason.
2. She did it so Walt would understand how she felt when she learned his secrets. She essentially did it for revenge, which I think is totally fucking justified. I'll admit it was petty, but nowhere NEAR as petty as Walt.
Supporting him but not her isn't just hypocritical, it's backwards to the point of being damn near psychotic.
I guess "she went too far" is the wrong choice of words. Sorry. I can totally understand why she did it. I also can understand why Walt would be pissed about it, though he did have it coming.
I also agree that Walt is way too prideful for his own good. He rejects his Elliot's offer and instead goes to cooking meth.
