Between the two stories I think that Calixta is most like Nora from "A Doll's House". Both Calixta and Nora go behind their husbands backs, for very different reasons, Nora's is to save her husbands life and Calixta's is to have an affair. Although it can be argued that Nora did what she did for power, therefore, not entirly just for love.
Also Calixta married Bobinot, when she has had a past with Alcee. That makes me think that she married Bobinot for a certian reason that is not menioned in the story. Nora marries Helmer to help her father, and also herself.
