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.

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.

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