(33, m) I’ve never been in a relationship, I’m autistic and ugly (pics included), is dating even possible for me at this point?

https://imgur.com/a/LPJ38xC These pics show how weird and uncanny I look,. I just payed $60 for a haircut and still look stupid. The advice I always get is “grow your hair out” and “grow your beard out” so I think people are just telling me to hide as much of my face as possible. I wouldn’t use the selfie pics for online dating obviously but I wanted to show objectively how I look.

My understanding is that dating only happens online now and the idea of a woman seeing pictures of me and thinking I’m attractive is laughable. I’ve never met a woman who thinks I’m attractive. I have autism and think I come off as a total weirdo. I’ve never been in a relationship so I have no idea how dating works and even if I met someone I like who likes me too I feel like it would be like dating a middle schooler for her.

The other places people meet partners are through friends, which won’t work because the women my friends hang out with all ignore me, and work, and I’d get fired if I asked out one of my coworkers. The rest of my life is pretty good so on paper I’m ready to start dating but I have no idea if that’s even possible since no woman has been attracted to me. Is it even feasible or should I just learn to be happy alone?
