Bethany Joy Lens says she was put on a “sex schedule” when she married the son of a “cult” leader.
The 43-year-old actress opened up about marrying a man known as QB when she was still part of the “big house family,” which she called a “high control group.”
On Wednesday's episode of Call Her Dad, Lenz explained that during a 10-year relationship with a “cult” in the early 2000s, he felt like he had “married the wrong person” during that time.
And because of the intimacy in their marriage, she and Kyuubi 'asked' to make a 'sex schedule'.
The One Tree Hill alum, who addressed the “feud” between her and former co-star Hilary Burton Morgan on the podcast, said her relationship with the QB was “fun and easy” at first.

On Wednesday's episode of Call Her Daddy, Lenz explained that when he was involved with a “cult” for 10 years in the early 2000s, he felt like he was “married to the wrong person” at the time.
However, over time he realized that “they didn't have much in common.”
“There's not much intellectual stimulation,” he admitted. 'But I have no options. I couldn't date anyone who wasn't a Christian and I couldn't date anyone outside the group.'
Over time, her marriage to QB became “this kind of arranged situation.”
Despite his “crazy sex drive,” he remembers saving himself for marriage after “promising” her it would be better; However, he said it was “big mud.”
“If I save myself for marriage, the promise is incredible sex and the deepest intimacy, nothing is better, that's the best there is,” he said.
“And then we have sex and we're like, 'Why do I feel so sad? I don't feel very connected to you. I feel so far away from you.'
Lens recalls: “I was asked to follow a schedule because I wasn't very interested in sex.
'Basically [they were] 'You have to do it. Do it. This is your duty. This is your job as a wife. Your emotions align. As long as you do it, you will eventually find a way to enjoy it.

He said he tried his best to “make it work” even though he “hated it” because there was “so much at stake.”
“It's a routine I have to participate in to keep peace in my marriage,” she added.
He said that while filming One Tree Hill in Wilmington, his now-ex regularly traveled to the Pacific Northwest and had sex every time he returned.
“Every time my stomach flips,” he admitted. “In fact, it really affected my relationships afterwards. [with] Other boyfriends when I have to pick them up at the airport.
Lens added: “I had a lot of PTSD from showing up at the airport to see him knowing that the next thing I was going to do was start this sexual program, for two weeks or three weeks or whatever.”
Although her marriage eventually ended, she said she still sympathizes with her ex.

“The poor kid never had a chance,” he said. 'He was raised by this narcissist. He was forced into a marriage that was not suitable for him. He is doing what he can, he has been fed these lies about men and machismo, and he has been raised with it.
