Well, Stu, unless you ask someone out just after seeing her, by the
time you ask her out she probably *has* been convinced you're worth her
time (if she says "yes").
Unless there are people who will go out with everyone without getting
to know them, everyone needs to be convinced someone is worth their
time. It's just that some take less convincing ("Hey, he looks rich" or
"Mmm, he's cute") than others.
Of course, the less convincing (implicit or explicit) someone takes
to get that first date, the more likely it is they'll discover they
should have waited longer and not made superficial judgements (unless
they are *very* lucky and get someone who is both superficially and
substantially great).
