Do Mark & Ginny live in a house that is falling down around them - yes. Did Ginny hire handy man Ted - yes. Beyond that, any impulse the viewer has to believe something is going on between Mark & Ted is simply fantasy escapism in Mark's mind. Ted was never there that night, stripping down to swim in their lake, it was just Mark's mind trying to make it easier to jump in the water and never return.
