As you're about to see on this site, there are plenty of Aspie girls. It's true there are more men with Asperger's and Autism (for the reasons that are still not fully medically explained), but there ARE Aspie girls out there (and over here).
Still, I don't think an Aspie girl is the only option for you.
You obviously have some social skills, which is more than many people with Asperger's have, so start from there. I bet you have some passions (what about your special interests?) It's true Aspies can go overboard with their interest to the point of annoying other people, but you should start with something that interests you. Nobody's 100% plain.
As for interacting with others, girls especially, women like to talk about themselves, so it's always a good thing to make them talk about their lives, their interests or, when you know them a bit better, their hopes and dreams.
Yeah, I kinda have an idea what my special talent is. Just don't have any idea what to do with it. I like to be very hands on constructing or deconstructing things. When I was little I always liked legos and stuff. Being a blacksmith or a craftmaster seems kinda fun, but the practice seems kinda outdated. Also I am not really creative, but when I look at things I try to analyze the objects mentally, like how they work and stuff. I tried engineering and the math really set me off. I am mostly indifferent and lazy to math but I can understand it as long as it isn't theoretical stuff. I tried architecture for like a year and I definitely realize I am not creative enough for that. Right now I am trying accounting and I can understand the fundamentals, but I am kinda indifferent to it right now. I think I could handle accounting.

Thanks but yeah, I don't live anywhere near Australia.
So anyone have an idea what I can do with my talents? Any idea is appreciated.
As for socializing I just have a bit of a hard time initiating things and kinda holding the conversation. I am also told I am very random. When I say something sometimes it tends to be extremely loosely tied to the conversation in some way but really has no relevance.
