Why would it not be okay with me?
The point of my comment was:
- if he is looking to understand her (motives etc), it will be a different conversation to;
- if he looking for her to just stop the affair, which will be a different conversation to;
- if he is looking to just blame her for the marital problems, which will be a different conversation to;
- if he is looking for a divorce...etc.
The attitude underlying each of those conversations differs. This will come through in his voice when he speaks. It will affect how the tone of the conversation, and therefore the content of the conversation.
Further, if he knows what he wants, he is much less likely to get sidetracked, and much more likely to ask the important questions.
If he goes into the conversation without knowing what he wants out of it (other than the truth - ie. what he is going to do with the truth) - the conversation
following any revelations could go down a path he didn't intend.
