Blake has been criticized for driving Alexis away. But consider that Alexis did not just have a single affair. She slept with a countless number of men. When discussing Amanda's conception, Blake indicated that he gave Alexis one more chance and during that time she slept only with him for a while. Then, he found her with Roger Grimes and that was the last straw. Also, since Blake was able to buy Grimes off and get him to incriminate Alexis, she must not have been a good judge of character back then.

I agree!

But we have to remember, poor Alexis was very, very young at the time, and still had a few things to learn. Who could blame her? She was needing affection, and Blake was always away on long business trips. Had he paid a little more attention to his wife, then maybe she wouldn't have strayed...

Straying is one thing. Taking on the whole town is something else!

Boo Hoo Hoo!

She made a commitment. This has to be learned? You get married to one person, and that means you only have sex with that person, duh!

Okay, Blake wasn't there, but did that give her the right to sleep with everyone ... Cecil Colby, Sam Dexter, Roger Grimes ... men who either worked for Blake or were his business rivals. There were more, as Cecil pointed out.

Feeling neglected is one thing, becoming the town whore is something else. Blake's obviously a forgiving man as they had more children after Adam. So, who seems to be at fault?

Hmmm.

I still say "Poor Alexis"!
I always like the underdog, although all your points are very true, and well taken!!

Whatever.
