Sorry Flora...thats horseshit!!
I used to think like he does...I learned pretty quick that its just a game. When I do my SO, I make sure that she gets off to the point of damn near hyperventalating. We have been together for 24 years, thus I know how to operate all her "switches". If the very next day I should utter an opinion that is contrary to hers, I may go a month or more without her "attention". Now some would say that I should just play the good married man and toe the line...but that's not what I signed up for. Who ever said I had to think like her to be married to her. We are all different. Some women behave this way for material possessions, some do just because pussy is the only thing that they can control in their marriage/homelife.
Married women have the game figured out...thus creating an entire industry (the hobby). I say past history predicts future performance. He should go ahead with the appointment and enjoy himself.
JMHO

Girls like this will use sex to get your commitment - then when they think they have you all "locked up" they'll start shutting down on you.
Just make sure they never think you're "locked up". If they think you may be attractive to other women - they'll work hard to keep you if they give a damn about you.
Every now and then talk about other girls you know at work. LOOK at other girls when you go out and make sure she sees you looking at them.
If you let yourself fall out of shape (as most guys do after they get married) - then she's gonna feel pretty secure that no one else wants you.
Start showing deliberate signs of cheating - like start working out ... passcode your phone and make up some bullshit reason why you did it ... come home late from work a night or two. Hobby during the daytime (they never suspect the daytime!). Download some porn and let her find it - just so she knows you're interested in "other" women.
I've never been in this situation but that's what I'd do.
