Jarialover pretty much hit the nail on the head. Marriage is not a prerequisite for monogamy. It doesn't matter how far the Ted/Ashley relationship has advanced - if you enter a relationship that is monogamous (and given that he is a pastor I'm sure it is 100% monogamous) you aren't supposed to get incolved with anyone else. Doesn't matter if that relationship has been going on for a week or a year, or longer. Ashley was in no way free. I'm a little surprised she went through with sleeping with Jason, given that Tom destroyed her marriage by cheating. Usually people who have been cheated on don't do so themselves because they know how horrble it feels.

The 5x16 description implies Ted has been gone, since he "returns" in 5x16. I'm guessing this is why Ashley has been lonely.

Byron can make out with Jackie all he wants since as far as we know they are both single.
