Does willy approve or disapprove of Biffs stealing habit?

[@gionylemus7180]

He doesn’t approve but a couple lines later he’s okay with it...

[@خوخهخوخهخوخه-ط5ظ]

was Willy feeling guilty over his affair with the woman and what the pair socks have to do with his feelings?

[@alishakhan8926]

Yes he does feel guilty. The reason he shouts at Linda when he sees her mending her stockings. Another reason why he remembers and sees his mistress in his flashbacks is that his guilt over betraying Linda and also the fact that his son Biff got to know about his infidel ways. Willy's affair was one of the reasons why a strain was put on the father son relationship. He repents about his deception.
