Is he doing too much too soon?

I’ve known this guy from many years ago when I worked with him and he all of a sudden Facebook messaged me one day asking how life was and what I was up to. We hadn’t seen or talked to each other in about ten years. I knew after chatting a while that he was feeling me out. He has been single for a year..his wife and him divorced. He’s a workaholic I suppose. He was also married in his early twenties but said it was a situation that he didn’t know what he was getting himself into. So, married twice. Has a five year old boy. He used to be a police officer. He works as a construction contractor now. He’s a good man but some things bug me a little. He is constantly telling me how stunning and beautiful I am. He writes me poetry telling me how much of a wonderful mother I am and how my beauty is more than skin deep. It’s a little much. I’m not used to it. He wants to go on a date this weekend for coffee. He told me he bought my two year old a few gifts for stealing her mom away from her. It’s kinda sweet but kinda weird..isn’t it? I need opinions! Please? Thanks!!
