"It wasn't so much that he cheated on Raven, it was that he didn't tell Clarke about Raven at all"- I'll start off by saying that it did slightly bother me that he never mentioned Raven to Clarke. However, he did believe Raven was dead. If Raven was really dead, then he would not have had to told Clarke about Raven right away. I don't know who would immediately tell the person that they are currently in a relationship with that their former lover died. It would have made for sense for Finn to wait awhile. Clarke would have had a right to know at some point but when she was told should have been when Finn felt it was right (that's if Raven had died). Also, Finn did not plan on sleeping with Clarke in 1x04. She was just the one who calmed him down and then "it happened". That being said, I do believe he was planning on waiting while before hooking up with Clarke but that night just changed the way he thought.

"his creepy-obsessive behavior with Clarke (including a huge helping of murder)"- I don't like how people think he murdered those people for Clarke. It's true that he went to the village looking for Clarke, however, he snapped due to his PTSD. If he killed those people for Clarke, then he would not have started to leave the village at all. He would have killed them before they started running. Also, I don't see it as "creepy-obsessive behavior". I see it as desperation. He loves Clarke and he did not want the Grounders to torture her or kill her (because he knows that's what happens when people are in the Grounders' prison camp). He was desperate to find her and his PTSD didn't help.

"brooding glances and not-so-subtle ploys to keep his imaginary little love triangle going even after both Clarke and Raven refused to participate further"- I disagree. He didn't want to hurt either of them or keep the love triangle going. He loved Raven for most of his life. Raven was always his family and that will never change. However, when he believed she died, he started falling in love with Clarke. Then, he found out she hadn't died and it all got so confusing. He did not want to hurt the girl he grew up with, his family, and at some point loved in a romantic way. He also did not want to hurt the girl he was falling in love with. He truly did love both Raven and Clarke.
