It's certainly a waste of time if you're getting signals that they don't want to be with you, or if you don't want to be with them. If you're wondering at what point you should cut bait because a relationship will obviously not go any further, then I'd say there are usually signs that the person's just not that into you. The other person talks about an ex or something else of your gender constantly, always pushes off your suggestions to get together, makes up excuses instead of enjoying intimacy (and I'm not just talking sex here- I'm talking any kind of intimacy). In general, if you have serious questions, it's probably not working out.
This really needs some expansion on the initial post. A "waste" as to what end? As a fling? As a relationship? What do you seek? What age range are we talking here?
The only thing I could maybe come up with right now would be someone who gently blocks your every move in her direction without just plainly saying "bugger off!". These would qualify in my book as attention hounds.

Yep. I wish I would have realized this earlier, and saved myself a lot of time and energy. If they talk about other girls, it's usually not a good sign...just makes you feel like they're not really focused on/or only thinking about you. I mean, I don't know about other people, if that happens in good relationships...but it seems like a red flag to me.
Sometimes I talk myself into giving someone a 'fair shot' by spending more time with than I really want to. I don't consider that a waste of time. But I find my self 'forgetting' about that person while I go about my daily life. Like, they'll call me after a week or so and I won't recognize the name because I've forgotten about him!
For me, a 'waste of time' is someone I clearly don't have anything in common with, or actively dislike. For example, anyone who turns out to be of a different political slant than I.
