I do but I also am also autistic. So I’m awkward around everyone regardless.
Yeah… it makes social situations pretty difficult.
They can, it really depends. Asexuals can get nervous around crushes or just people they find attractive. It just depends on the person, asexual is a veeery broad spectrum and it’s you who gets to chose if that label identifies you, nobody else has to validate if the term suits you.
Personally, only because of social stigma.
I worry that paying attention/compliment to someone being aesthetically good looking will be taken as a sxual interest when it isn’t. I’m as sxually interested in them as I am a cute cat or a pretty flower, which I also smile at seeing.
So I’m a bit more hesitant to smile at the pretty human than I am smiling at the pretty kitty or pretty flower.

Sexual attraction isn’t the only kind of attraction.
There are (at least) 3 types of attraction: Sexual, romantic and aesthetic
Attraction is more complicated than this but this is probably good enough to start.
I personally don’t but I would get awkward if someone was attracted to me
