I've had women ask me out who had literally never said a positive thing about my appearance a singular time before hand.

I wish I felt less socially awkward about making positive comments about others appearances.

Because it's rude to comment on the physical appearance of strangers

Asking me out is a step beyond complimenting my appearance though.

If they were so bold as to ask me out they weren't afraid of coming off as creepy.
