Should I meet him?

An acquaintance of my brother - recently became a widower- hes looking to get married again....

hes a little above 40.(which is fine for me). Has a few kids (which is a little bit of a problem because i dont think i can take so much responsibility all of a sudden. Hes not expecting full motherhood role but some form of friendly help). Education is from UK. Doing some construction/ real estate work. Fairly religious. From his pic he gives a bit of an odd vibe. My brother said too that he has a weird thing with him but suggested that I should meet him to know clearly and not judge before.

should I meet him? I feel so confused. I feel scared of trying new things. Im exhausted by my experiences already.

On one hand I want some kind of romantic association and friendship in my life. But I dont want to have too much pressure all at once. I dont know.
