I have a question...

I met a guy and we've been platonic friends for a couple of months, talking on Facebook. He came to visit me yesterday, and we had so much fun! He arrived at 3:00 PM and left around 11:30 PM.

Well, we had a fine platonic time together and he did not try to make a move on me at all, although he did give me a few very nice compliments.

Then, I found out something through a mutual friend that is very dark about this man.

Our mutual friend bumped into us at a music venue yesterday, she spotted him with me, and told me privately to "be very careful". Then this mutual friend wrote me a lengthy and detailed text later in the eve, explaining what she knows about this man that is so dark. It involves what sounds like possible sexual assault of another woman. This guy had told me about a woman he recently dated whom he describes as being completely nuts.

Now, my question is: do I judge this man based on this information alone, and distance myself from him, or do I continue to get to know him better as a friend, without bringing it up to him?

The mutual friend told me that he had gaslit the woman after she tried to accuse him of non consensual sex. She was allegedly passed out on sedatives at the time, and woke up to discover him on her and inside her. Apparently, she has texts supporting that he knew she was on sedatives while he was having sex with her.

I don't know what to think. I was horrified to receive this information, just after having him visit me for the night. But he was nothing short of being a total gentleman the whole time with me, and we had a great time, like I said.

I'm in a dilemma. I feel a kindred spirit type of connection with this man. What do you think I should do?
