So far in the play, a bunch of drama has taken place. In my opinion so far, Nora is a very independent lady for working for that money. She deserves to be treated with respect since she is the one who saved Torvold's life, but Torvold treats Nora with much disrespect, and she puts up with it and is always optimistic when he says anything to her.
These type of characters remind me of Portia and Brutus in a way from Julius Caesar. Brutus is treating Portia like she is a "prostitute," as she says in the play, who is like Nora who takes in the insults. Torvold is much like Brutus, who is treating his wife with much disrespect. This is my opinion of the story so far, and I can't really think of anyone besides Brutus and Portia that are like Torvold and Nora in literature.
