and she started sleeping with Ted after Walt forced himself back into the house against her will, the most disrespectful and disempowering thing he could do; it was her way of reassuming some measure of control. she annoys the hell out of me too sometimes but she put up with a lottttttt of shit and showed Walt more patience and tolerance than just about anyone else would have, didn't turn him into the police despite her legal adviser counseling her to, and when she found out the extent of it mostly just wanted Walt to go to the police for his own protection.
Walt is totally to blame for Skylar acting the way she did, he rejected all offers of help out of pride and hubris and tortured her psychologically with his secrecy while committing evil, immoral actions
