Hoo-fucking-rah. That just completely described my feelings about his character, but way better than I could have. I love both Clark and Lex for different reasons, and at the same time- I can't understand how someone could put all the blame for the Rift on one character or the other because that's not what happened at all. Clark overreacts and jumps to conclusions because Lex has done shifty things- and honestly, I pretty much see only shades of grey, and I wouldn't have been distrustful after some of the things he did- and then Lex gets hurt because Clark doesn't trust him and does shiftier things. Endless cycle that leads into the Rift, the end, very sad but neither of them is exactly to blame. Their friendship was completely out of the blue and bizarre by any standards, and if Lex hadn't been so obsessive and put Clark so high up on a pedestal (especially considering that he was fourteen) and Clark so determined to save him from himself they wouldn't have lasted three months as friends. To me it just seems that it honestly wasn't meant to be, which was damn tragic because they made great friends in the beginning, but that's just the way it was. Unfortuneately, with both of their lives and secrets and over-dramatic personalities, it doesn't just turn into a dead frienship. Dead friendships happen every day and people get over them. But those two turned it into an Epic Rift, and that makes them both morons. Loveable morons, but morons nonetheless. If they hadn't both been such drama queens, then things would have turned out so much better for both of them.

Um. Done ranting now.

I think your summary of their relationship is dead on. Yes, beautiful. Exactly.
