 That's exactly it....it's flattering and they "like the attention"....i mean, what's not to like? He just got a date without having to actually put in any effort...so initially he'll probably think it's cool...and let's face it, even if he doesn't like you if you aren't half bad he's going! He's a GUY!!!!...
But IMO there is a downside though. And it's that the girl is likely to think his acceptance of the date means he likes her (because that's usually why GIRLS accept dates)...when, in reality, "if" he likes you, it really wasn't enough initially for him to pursue YOU...
Of course, there are always exceptions...but, as my mom always said "if he likes you, he'll call".
