CLEX | Fandom

Personally, the Clark-Lex bromance in seasons 1-4 has been one of my favorite things about Smallville. I loved seeing them as friends, but despite how heartbreaking it was I also loved the way their relationship developed to finally become what it was destined to be.

There are many people I've seen on other platforms-especially YouTube- that see Clark and Lex as a romantic couple. I think they most certainly never were and never could be. I'm not saying this because I am homophobic or something but all I saw in those two were (in the first few seasons) guys trying to become closer friends but just couldn't stop lying to each other for their respective reasons.

And since Lex is my favorite and Clark number 2, I just can't help but see this as an amazingly well done relationship.

Lex never lied to Clark. Clark was the liar all the way through. Lex was like his big brother but also hero worshipped Clark for saving his life.

Kojak2201, Im a huge Lex fan, I think I understand him relatively well. He didn’t mean bad with Clark for most of their relationship. But how could you say Lex never lied? He lied, so many, so many times. Yes Clark’s lies were one of the things that turned Lex into the villain he is, yes we could argue that Clark shouldn’t have done it. But Lex did lie as well. And kept so much from Clark. They both did from each other.
