a 80 inch TV
I think it's a 80 inch if the implication is correct, but knowing writers on the internet the wording could mean he just wants the biggest possible tv. 80 inches would be insane come to think of it unless his room is a sports bar.

My [29 F] fiance [28 M] has been giving me the cold shoulder since he admitted something hurtful. (together 11 years)

My fiance and I got into a stupid argument yesterday morning. After it had kind of tapered off, he snapped at me to hurry up so we could get going (I was supposed to drive him to pick up his car from the mechanic). I told him that we would leave once he dropped his attitude. He immediately went to 11 and told me that if I didn't drive him to get his car, he was leaving and he wouldn't be back, ever.

He's done this several times in the past few months (once on the morning of my bridal shower), so I brought it up to him. He admitted that he knows I have abandonment issues and that threatening to leave is a trigger for me, so he does it because he feels like it's the only way to "get respect" or "get me to do what he wants."

I'm left reeling from this for two reasons. One, the person who I've loved for the past 11 years just admitted that he purposefully does something he knows will hurt me in order to manipulate me into doing what he wants. Those were his almost exact words. And two, the fact that he says he does it to "get respect" tells me that he feels like I don't respect him. I feel backed into a corner on this because I honestly feel like I do nothing but respect and love him. When I asked him what I needed to change on my part, he couldn't give me an example.

Since that conversation yesterday afternoon, he's been ignoring me. Hasn't spoken to me or even looked at me since.

I feel used, manipulated, clingy, and frankly, like a doormat for even wanting him to pay attention to me at this point. I have no idea how to progress from here. He left for a planned lunch with his friend, and I have no idea how to approach this with him when he comes back. Is there even a way to get past this point for either of us?

tl;dr Fiance admitted that he uses my triggers (abandonment, stonewalling) that he learned about in our previous couples therapy sessions to get me to do what he wants and "get respect." Has been ignoring me since. Is this fixable? What would be the next steps?

Me [33 M] with my Wife[31 F] of 5 years (together 10), I think she might be cheating

My wife, Claudia, was off of work for the day with our 2 kids (2 and 5), but told me she had made a nail appointment in the middle of the day, and that she'd drop the kids off with our sitter for the duration.

I wasn't supposed to come home from work that day because Claudia's work Holiday party was very close to my office, but my boss was feeling the spirit of the season and told me to leave early so that I could drive both Claudia and myself to the party and I could DD for her. I texted her the good news before I left the office later in the afternoon.

The weather had been rainy for the majority of the day, but had petered off to a light, patchy drizzle when I left for home. As I pulled into my driveway I saw my wife's car, but, oddly, I also saw a car shaped dry patch where I normally park. The rest of the driveway was soaked from the weather.

Not thinking too much about it, I casually asked if her best friend had brought over their kid for a playdate, which is a common occurrence. To my surprises, however, Claudia replied that no one had been there except for her and the kids.

I should mention that this is a neighborhood where it would be very weird for another a delivery person or a neighbor to park in someone elses driveway, and definitely not long enough for a spot to dry underneath their vehicle during the rain. So I pressed, and I asked who had come over, and cited the car shaped dry spot in the driveway as my evidence.

She became aggressive at this point, something I've noticed with her when she's being dishonest or trying to minimize something, and heatedly stated again that no one was over. She then asked if I was accusing her of lying, which I sidestepped answering before letting the issue drop. I didn't want to have a fight in front of the kids, and that's the way she was taking this conversation.

Since then I've yet to bring up the issue again, but I can't accept that there was no one over and that she lied to my face.

Here's my question... Sans further evidence, do I even approach her about this again, or do I have to wait for the next thing that appears 'off'? If I do start this conversation again, do I trust what she tells me? Is there something legal I can do that isn't super creepy to monitor what's going on with her?

EDIT 1 - I contacted the sitter. Kids were there an hour longer than I was told.

EDIT 2 - I saw her today at lunch and snooped her phone while she went to the restroom. On the day of, she has 9 calls from a single unnamed phone number. 2 of which happened while she was supposed to be at the Salon, 7 of which happened in a 10 minute period after I had left to drop off the kids with the grandparents before she and I went out.

1 call from from back in November when I was gone at a convention. Things not looking great.

EDIT 3 - I've had some DMs and a couple of comments below I think ask about this as well: Yes she's been working longer hours. At a job where she used to get home at 5-6pm, she's now routinely coming home at 7-7:30pm. She's said she's trying to hit a year end goal.

For those that are accusing me of blowing this out of proportion: No, I hadn't before questioned her explanation about staying late. Up until recently I've trusted what she tells me she's doing. I do question it now.

EDIT 4 - Googled the number. I have his name and address, which is <10 minutes from Claudia's workplace. Older man, wealthy, single. I'm going to continue researching; still only coincidental info, and nothing concrete.

All together it looks bad, but I'm holding onto the hope that this could still just be one giant misunderstanding. Optimism, and all that.

tl;dr: Found a dry spot in my driveway on a rainy day where I normally park. Wife says no one was there. Do I confront her again or take a different tactic?
