FaceTiming before a first date…

My friend was recently telling me about a man she matched with on a dating app. She said they hit it off, and quickly moved to texting. After a few days of chatting, they decided to meet in person (nice!). Here’s where things get interesting…

To schedule date, this guy FACETIMED her to plan it. Now, she found this to be very weird, and kind of invasive. I thought it showed he was being proactive — but perhaps a bit nosey. Was he trying to scope out what she looked like? Is he just an overcommunicator? Is this a red flag? (Keep in mind, this was a blind facetime, it was not discussed beforehand like “Cool! I’ll FT you this week to plan!“)
