  The X-ray source 2S0114+650=LSI+65 010 is a binary system containing a B-type
primary and a low mass companion believed to be a neutron star. The system has
three reported periodicities: the orbital period, P{orb}~11.6 d, X-ray flaring
with P{flare}~2.7 hr, and a "superorbital" X-ray periodicity P{super}~30.7 d.
The objective of this paper is to show that the puzzling periodicities in the
system may be explained in the context of scenarios in which tidal interactions
drive oscillations in the B-supergiant star. We calculate the solution of the
equations of motion for one layer of small surface elements distributed along
the equator of the star, as they respond to the forces due to gas pressure,
centrifugal, coriolis, viscous forces, and the gravitational forces of both
stars. This calculation provides variability timescales that can be compared
with the observations. In addition, we use observational data obtained at the
Observatorio Astron\'omico Nacional en San Pedro M\'artir (OAN/SPM) between
1993-2004 to determine which of the periodicities may be present in the optical
region. We suggest that the tidal oscillations lead to a structured stellar
wind which, when fed to the neutron star, produces the X-ray modulations. The
connection between the stellar oscillations and the modulation of the mass
ejection may lie in the shear energy dissipation generated by the tangential
motions that are produced by the tidal interaction, particularly in the tidal
bulge region. The tidal oscillation scenario weakens the case for 2S0114+650
containing a magnetar descendent.
