Question about romance movies


Has there ever been a movie premised around the following scenario? There are two couples. Woman A is going out with Man A, and Woman B is going out with Man B. Although there are mutual feelings of attraction between the participants in the couples, there are nevertheless a lot of things that annoy each other about the other person. Woman A, however, has a social outlet because she is friends with Woman B. The two couples meet each other in public. Man A is secretly intrigued by Woman B, and Man B is secretly interested in Woman A. There is also a reciprocal attraction that develops over time; Woman B finds out that she has more things in common with Man A than Man B. The reverse is also true because Woman A also discovers this to be true of Man B. Over time, the participants confess they that have a stronger attraction for the 'other' outside their immediate relationship; in the end, there is thus a 'swap.' Man B ends up with Woman A, and Woman B ends up with Man A. There is a happy ending because all the four participants finds themselves happier and more satisfied than when the movie began.

I am sure that there may be quite a few movies based on the aforementioned premise. Perhaps I already watched such a movie and forgot about it. But has anyone, off the top of their head, watched a movie based on this premise or at least one similar to it? Thank you.
