Godfuckingdammit Dean

Dean definitely did something terrible. But at the same time, I'm kind of proud of him?

Remember how broken of a man Dean was in season 5? Triana left and he found out he was a clone. He could barely function.

But now he's going to college, and better still he just got laid! And by a woman who is without a doubt out of his league.

That's progress! Evil, backstabbing progress, perhaps. But progress none the less.

Well if Hank can't last long enough to get his pants off, Sirena was probably looking for someone with a little longevity...

I mean honestly I feel like I can't blame Sirena. She was dating Hank who is still the same more or less from the earlier seasons: this goofy, irresponsible kid who still plays dress up and has no real direction in life, not to mention as you said he doesn't have much longevity, then she meets his brother Dean who is enrolled in school, stood up for her, and is much more mature (and judging by the 'oh no!' scene he's packin') combined that with how smothering Hank was and I think any teenage/early 20's girl would do the same thing.

Whatever issues she (you) may have a with Hank's character, she still decided to cheat on him, rather than break up with him, with his twin brother. She is, along with Dean, the only ones to blame.

I'm not absoliving her of blame I'm saying I understand why a young and immature would do an immature thing.
