Can confirm what PP said -- The Split is a good series. Fully drawn characters, not The Sinned Against and The Sinning

Also, Meryl Streep and Robert Diniro's Falling in Love

I'm sorry you're going through this, OP.

It’s “interesting” and “profound” because the couple there are anomalous in all ways - much more of a fantasy than almost anything else listed.


it is a terrible show. it's basically an excuse for a sex fest in season 1

These have a female-based infidelity theme which you may find interesting:

Indecent Proposal (1993)
Unfaithful (2002)
Bridges of Madison County (1995)
Color Purple

Here's a couple of oldies from the '40s:

Indiscretion of American Wife (Montgomery Clift)
Brief Encounter (1945)

Infidelity is glamorized. Fantasy fictions.

The Betty Broderick series is a good one. So is Unfaithful. Be aware, these movies can be really triggering.
