Answer:Michelle is using RATIONALISATION to minimize

Explanation:

Rationalization is a defence mechanism in which we try to give a rational or logical explanation of a situation in order to escape the real meaning of it or justify an action , this is done so that we can tolerate a situation or make it look better than it is hence we will not feel worse about it.

Michelle is trying to convince herself that her husband isn't cheating which will calm her cause if she were to explain all these cues in the exact way that they seem to indicate it may be devastating for her so to make this matter tolerable for herself she would rather find a logical explanation that would make her feel better.
