**Try not to spoil anything in the comments - if you do, put “SPOILER FOR X SERIES” at the top so that people can safely read without worry.**

For those that don’t know, dramatic irony is when the viewers know something the characters don’t - imagine character A calling character B, and character B doesn’t answer, and it shows character B cheating on A with C.
I believe that in the vast majority of times, it would be better if we found out when the characters do. I’d rather hold out hope that B loves A and get invested in their relationship and be surprised when character B reveals it, not just know the entire time. That way I can feel the full magnitude of the betrayal and such.
The exception is cases where the entire point is that you’re supposed to find it beautiful or whatever like in a car-crash-disaster kind of way. But otherwise it just feels like spoiling itself.
