Let's say- That's the whole equation.

I'm just talking about Amanda right now.

I am just saying, in terms of, was Amanda in a relationship?

Was everyone single?

That's why it doesn't matter because we care most about Sierra's feelings.

And as it relates to Sierra,

Amanda's relationship to Ellis is kind of irrelevant, right?

Because of the betrayal.

It only relates to Kyle because he was the one married.

And I'm just saying if this story was just about Amanda, let's say Amanda started dating another, I don't know, like maybe it was Amanda being speculated that she was dating Ben or something.

I don't know.

And it had nothing to do with Wes and Sierra hooking up.

We would still be talking about this, but we would care far less because like all I'm saying is

Amanda dating someone who's close to Kyle to me makes sense in effect if she is someone who spent the past 10 years not feeling seen or validated I'm not saying it's a smart decision I'm not saying it's a healthy decision but it just makes like sense that someone in her position would do something to almost get a reaction from her husband who hasn't ever really reacted in a way not it's not grace I'm just like I'm just connecting the dots

I'm not saying you are.

Yeah.

But I'm just saying if Amanda were my daughter, I would, I wouldn't be like, yeah, cool.

Like, yeah, good luck.

You too.

But I would at least understand how she got there, whether I agreed with the decision or not.
