I got a partner to play with. She is more experienced than I. She offered me to ask her previous partners.

Hey. I met this woman on a much, we had been chatting for some time, and after a date, she agreed to be my play partner. She told me I could ask references of her to her previous partners. I said it was okay, but not I am wondering if I should do it. Should I? Is that part of vetting someone?
