How about talk to girls in real life? All you have to do is approach women and say hi to them, I recommend doing it with a girl you know such as a girl thats in your class etc. If you two are in the same class, you can mention how difficult the homework is or if you have work together, you can say how you think the job is.

And if you cant approach women, just have them approach you. Dont ask me how, I aint no woman guru

Random strangers is pretty difficult best to approach when you have something in common like cody says. The same seminar, same social club, same class, same meetup.

Well I'm an engineering major, so the opportunities to meet women are frankly quite limited if not non-existent. :lol: I guess there's algebra class, but honestly community college is not a great place to meet people. Most people just wanna get their work done and go home, and the friendly people there never seem to talk to me anyways so.

toastmasters and meetup are usually supportive I've found.

Stop talking to internet girls like everyone here said, ones on dating sites have tons of issues and are single 80-90% of the time, start talking to real girls.

To the OP, don't accept that you'll always be alone. I don't and I'm as green as they come. I miss the most obvious signals and when I see them I'm paralyzed by doubt. I have all the confidence of a boiled cabbage and the odds for my success are one in Graham's Number (for the uninitiated see this http://frothygirlz.com/2010/01/14/big-numbers-part-2/). Yet in spite of all reason I still try. I will not give up and neither should you!

Ive found books on aspergers good for understanding how I'm different and what social skills I need to work on

Some girls show interest in me, I have to learn to not shoot myself in the foot socially. The core of who I am stays the same but my behavior has to adapt.
