Honestly, I see no point in this thread rambling on. The OP has been given an enormous amount of advice on this and his other threads but chooses not to look into any options, obviously preferring to wallow in his misery and for every suggestion make an excuse why that doesn't work. This excuse of mild Asperger's becomes very old when others with more severe difficulties manage to surmount obstacles and make their way.

As his parents enable him so do many posters here. Out of the sheer goodness of their big hearts, certainly, but this 32 year old man is going to do nothing until someone gives him a really big boot in the arse. And somehow I don't think that's going to happen.

I'm going to look for a job and loose weight before looking for another woman.

You stated in post 1 that you are employed which was 3 months ago. So you got sacked in between?

Finding other woman who will even give me one date is impossible for me. Help I'm lost??
I'm seriously thinking about giving up dating and looking for woman.

Do you want to give up? Can you handle giving up?

I thought you were going to concentrate on getting your life together before trying to date? The fact that your life is not in a good place right now and that you cannot get a date, are related.

Personally you need to get your priorities straight. Finding a girlfriend should be on the lower end of the priority list.

1. Get a full time job. Without $$ very few women are willing to go out with someone.

2. Learn some social skills. Start small. Go to the mall and try to smile at once person. Not creepy stalker smile but just acknowledge them. That is a good step. Hold your head up and don't look at the ground.

3. Get contacts. I wear glasses also but wear my contacts 90% of the time. When I wear my glasses I look like a geek.

4. Quit using your Asperger's as a crutch. Seriously. YOU can break out of that cycle IF you really want to but using it as a crutch is only hurting you.

There are Asperger's dating sites. I would suggest trying one.

OP didn't respond to that suggestion, but I would also recommend the site to others who are on the neurodiverse spectrum, WrongPlanet.net.
Wrong Planet Forums
(It's not a competing site with City-Data, it's for a particular population-as well as for the people who want to better understand them)
I joined wrong planet already.

I already signed up for the aspergers dating site. So far no one who lives near me.
