It depends... Is his wife aware of this?
If he's sneaking around then it's not a good sign.
If his wife knows about it, then he's probably trying to be friendly, or trying to get to know you better.

Hi, be very wary. I wouldn't be surprised if he fancies his chances with you. Why would he want to take you to lunch? I'd be suspicious.

No, not at all. If he was inviting you 'round to their house for lunch and his wife was going to be there, different story. Baby-sitting doesn't involve husband-minding as well.
