Trust and communication are key to a healthy BDSM playdate
How can trust be established when placing a Craigslist ad for a playdate with a stranger. If time is spent really getting to know the guy beforehand then possibly a degree of trust can be established but if not then there is always a risk. One could look at it that you could trust this guy, he told you what he was like and hoisted a red flag for you. Had he said he always respected limits then at the playdate shown his true colors that would have been far worse!
