The difference with Louise is that Ian is involved. Ian has stated that one of his fantasies is an FFM threesome and Ian and Lena have agreed to experiment together. Lena is essentially acting according to this agreement.
I agree. I am not Ian or Lena, neither is anyone else playing. So the characters have their own pre-established values and interest, (those that I suspect mirror the author's). For example we can't choose for Ian to have a threesome kink, he has one in every playthrough. We also can't give him a hardline stance against Lena sleeping with women prior to the threesome. He says he does not know how to feel about it and says he wants to be included in the future. Again I think later when we get to play as him I think there will be an opportunity for us to decide how Ian reacts, whether he says to always be included, allows Lena to sleep with Louise on her own time, or if he forbids it entirely.
I'm not talking about the threesome, I'm talking about the times she slept with Louise prior to the threesome while in an official relationship with Ian.
My memory is a bit fuzzy here (and our play throughs may differ) but has this actually happened?
Fair thoughts, though I'd say agree to disagree.
The Lena cheating on Ian with Louise scene prior to the threesome? Yes. Lena and Ian get together in chapter 9, Lena can ride Louise face, spank, and dildo fuck Louise in chapter 10 epilogue, the threesome then comes in chapter 11. Pretty sure there's another scene in chapter 10 with Lena and Louise, but it's pretty forgettable.
But that's not cheating! That's more like adding spice to a relationship. I wouldn't complain...
I want a path where Ian pities how Lena treats her and becomes a better dom to Louise than Lena ever was.
Although Louise is nice at first, it soon becomes clear that she has many emotional problems that require a lot of therapy, so don't see it as a serious romance. Now, as Lena's sex toy, that is more appropriate. The girl is totally dependent and emotionally needy. I'm sure if Lena asked her she would appear on her onlyfans to have more subscribers.
I use to think that. Ask yourself this, if your partner is fooling around with women behind your back and you let her get away with it with no repercussions, how hard is to take that little next step to fucking men behind your back as well?
Inst Ivy always bragging and bragging about how much money she makes but never helps Lena out?
Yeeeeep, I feel very sorry for Lena, in general there are a lot of terrible people in her environment, as you say Ivy says she wants to help her, but she only wants to corrupt her without mentioning that she most likely sells drugs which is where she really gets so much money, Axel is a possessive and stalking bastard , her mother doesn't take her feelings into account or care about her, her brother is a parasite that we don't even see his face and Mr.Ward looks like a villain straight out of the movie The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

Now that you mention it IF Lena gives Ivy not expensive gift than relationship points drops(forgot how much they drop) and I thought that was weird as Ivy would've been more considerate of Lena's situation considering how she behaves regarding her.
Ah yes, the tried and true "it's fine if she's doing it with an XX chromosome" double standard.
Alison is quite self-centered so i think she might object on the same grounds guys are usually far less enthusiastic about MFM threesomes than the MFF ones -- because she'd view another girl as her direct competition for Ian's dick, as opposed to having double fun herself. She's been pretty passive-aggressive about Lena in particular.
"It's not cheating because it's a girl" is the dumbest argument I have ever heard to justify cheating.
