So what (if any) romantic comedies do NOT have glorified infidelity? Even if there is no adultery, there is usually fornication. Any exceptions?

It's not just movies. I'm taking a fictional lit. course online; probably about half of the stories deal with adultery. It's unbelievable (and painful) to see some of the (ignorant) postings on the discussion board.

My FWH A and OW was very much like "Fatal Attraction" minus the violence. She definitely did not "let go" very easily.

I've noticed the same thing. It is inescapable. In almost every movie I've watched recently, a play we went to last month, on TV, in songs.

And now it's front page news!

H takes my hand, if we're together, or hugs me later and says something like "that must have been tough". But, unless I'm willing to give up TV, movies, theatre and songs with words (there is always classical music and jazz), I'm going to have to learn to block the negative reactions from my mind. Harden my heart, so to speak.
