A man came into my work the other day, I work in a high-end clothing store. I did as usual..asked how he was doing and if he needed anything to let me know. He looked around for awhile and asked if I new any good places to eat and I asked him if he meant in the food court he said anywhere I gave him only one recommendation as I don't usually go out to restaurants. He said thank you and continued to look around. I remembered of a Mexican food place a few moments later and asked if he liked Mexican food and told him about the place. After that he started asking me all these questions and we started talking he mentioned things as me being nurturing and considerate and I didn't want to be rude but I really was trying to work and close-out the men's department in the store. He asked me if I had a boyfriend I kindly laughed and said no I don't. He then asked me out to dinner after work but I told him we were closing late and I'm a live-in housekeeper and he has quests and since my entry is through the garage I didn't want to wake the baby and told him to come back if he wanted to. He seemed persistent & said he most definitely would. I've never been in this situation before. I'm only 19 and he was probably in his mid to late 20s most likely thinking I was older. My question as stated above would you date a complete stranger. After he'd left my co-workers said it seemed like we were speed dating. He wasn't a bad looking guy; he was handsome, but, since I am young and I honestly don't have much experience in relationships, dating and I'm the kind of person who thinks everyone is a good person I'd greatly appreciate some advice from a 3rd part perspective. He'll probably be coming back middle of the week
I have done so, we met on the street, I chatted her up, we exchanged emails and phone numbers, met for coffee a bunch of times, and she is my gf as we speak.
But as far as most women go, I'd say only about 10% of you have the guts to take that plunge. If I were a woman I'd be one of the 90%.
The problem is that the guys that put you most at ease are typically players (mass murderers put their victims at ease also), because unconfident men or those who lack total self-assurance act "dorky" around just those women they really like the most; OR they pretend to be so non-chalant they send no signal whatsoever (protecting themselves from rejection).
This means that the guy women might think is a creep is most likely the least threat, but will get vetoed out of hand, even though he is most likely sincere whereas the player is definitely not.
If you decide to date, stick to public places only. I would also meet him and avoid riding in his vehicle(s) and hanging out at his place for a while. And since I don't trust anyone, I would do a back ground check on the guy using what ever info I could find like driver's license number, address, phone number, license plate number etc etc. Also, don't let him guilt you into crap either...that is a sign of trouble fore me.

Mind if I ask you the obivous: if you don't trust anyone, why would you want to meet anyone for the purpose of dating?

This isn't about me, It's about a young woman who is asking for advice on dating a complete stranger. If this this was your daughter, would you trust this guy? Trust is earned, not given and I would do a back ground check.

Just don't go home with him. Go eat in a public place and leave early
This reminds me there is a cute female working in vineyard vines. I've been there three times so far and each time she did her best to pick me the best clothes, which she thought would look good on me. Of course, she is doing her job.
It's located right opposite the church I go to. Maybe I should ask her to step out for a walk with me

Background checks for everyone you meet at a bar, at a party, etc?
This is quite extreme.
