Even if there is an ounce of attraction the woman has for the man, the moment he tries to get her to feel sorry for him will kill all of the attraction she has for him instantly, basically its like the way dating and relationships work is that, women don't want to feel like they are doing the man a favor, its like woman is supposed to feel like the lucky one not the man
First of all Asperger's is a form of autism and there are literally 1000's of varying degrees of autism. We still don't even know 1% of this condition.
You should also know you are in good company with this condition as many of the world's leading artistic, talented, and inspiring people have this disorder. You can have a fulfilling life, same as anyone else.
The main culprit with Asperger's and relationships? Many people with this disorder lack empathy and emotion. Again, the degree varies. It also affects you abilities to connect with other people and relate. These are key components in any relationship and the fact you are handicapped with having your condition makes it all the more challenging. Researchers are still debating whether these emotional attributes can be taught and learned, or they are just there as part of the overall makeup of one's personality.
I would suggest seeking professional help in these areas. Tell your psychologist you want a relationship and want to work on your emotional and empathy skills.

I relate to the OP because I have A.S. as well too and unfortunately being socially inept or any social deficiency is gonna hurt men more than women because men are still expected to take action and do the pursuing, approaching and asking out
Because i've never had a girlfriend before in my entire life, i'm 24 years old, obviously still a virgin, I'm not that outgoing either, don't have many close friends, and that hurts my chances a lot of meeting girls, because it seems the most common way people meet their significant other, boyfriend/girlfriend is through people networking, as in through mutual friends, friends of friends, etc.
Also, obviously High-Functioning Autism, Asperger Syndrome, obviously that makes a person socially-awkward, socially-inept by nature, genetics cause that, and not having good social-skills, not having good-conversation skills, being socially-awkward, socially-inept, hurts a guys chances of landing a relationship way more than a socially-awkward, socially-inept girl's chances of landing a relationship, because it is still dominantly expected of the guy to make the first move, do the approaching, starting conversations and ask the girl out, overall, initiate the pursuit and date, relationship.
Should a guy like this just realize he is never going to improve socially? his social-skills, conversation-skills will forever remain the same? that he is bound to be alone forevery literally?
I've asked girls out before, have approached many, hit on them, but either they were taken already or not interested, i've even tried online dating but no luck on online dating sites either, the online dating sites i've used were Plentyoffish and OkCupid, but no luck. I've even been attending Asperger support-groups, meet-ups for like 4 years now, but no luck meeting anybody that i'm attracted to, it is mostly male-dominated.
I'm not sure if this can be overcome, because i'm worried there might be different levels of Asperger Syndrome, High-Functioning Autism, and i'm worried that mine might be too severe for me to overcome, as in literally impossible for me to overcome.
So should I just throw in the towel already?
If you are an autistic male, most likely it won't happen.

so I guess it's hopeless for the OP then, only way is a hooker, escort or call girl
There have always been and there will always be men who won't have women in their lives this will never change and why should it?
Because these men may cause collateral damage to society.
