Okay......
You mention that it's been a while since you've been out on a
"date".......let's cut to the chase here.
You also mention his
reputation about having sex...and you CAPITALIZE it.....SO the real issue here is how long a while has it been since sex?

I think you already answered yourself...
Okay, number one, he's a decade younger than you. That's a pretty big difference. Especially when he's just into his 30s. In my experience, guys don't tend to "grow up" and "settle down" until they hit the mid-30s. He's still a kid. Which leads right into ...
Number two, he's a party animal. You're outgrowing that. So you're going to end up being the designated driver or, worse, the mean mommy-figure who wet-blankets all his "fun." OR you'll end up trying to act his age, and making yourself ill. And speaking of making one ill...
Number three, he likes to party, get drunk, and have sex. If he's not one hundred percent monogamous in his sex life (and what drunken party animal is?), you're putting yourself at risk of some pretty nasty STDs these days, if you partner up with someone who's playing the field.
Number four, he handed you a business card to make a date. 
Now, I've dated some geeky morons before, but even they had the sense to ask me out in the traditional, time-honoured way: "May I take you to dinner and a movie?" Handing you a business card and telling you to call him says two things to me: first, it says to me that this guy is totally about himself, and doesn't have the first notion about how to romance a girl. Do you really want to have to teach him those skills? And second, it says that he has no intention of taking the initiative in this relationship -- he's looking for someone to do his thinking and the hard work (including the risking of rejection) so that he won't have to. 
Number five, he's on the rebound. I don't even need to comment on that. It speaks for itself.
He's a LOSER. Plain and simple. Run away. Run far, far away.

Okay...first off...
he hands you a BUSINESS CARD and then asks you to call him? WTF is right! I'm sorry, but I'm a romance girl, and if that's his idea of romance, kick his patootie to the curb. But then again, it all depends on what kind of relationship you want right now...do you want a hot new fling (which he's sounding like right now...wait, is he hot?) or do you want forever? Okay...maybe asking for forever is too much right now...so how about commitment? Honestly, you sound like you're trying to give every reason NOT to go out with him, but if he seems decent enough, there's no real harm....unless he's some closet psycho, deranged stalker you don't know about...haha, I'm sure that's not the case!

He's definetly NOT my type either Shelly. It sounds to me like maybe he makes you uncomfortable, so no, I wouldn't go out with him. Don't worry, if it's meant to happen it will.
