how do i do anything or make friends/relationships

so im 20m with autism. and i've never really had any friends, especially now that i am in college. i have a few online friends but they all have girlfriends and irl friends and other people in their lives, and im just the guy they sometimes play games with while theyre my only social interaction at all. it's hard for me to even leave my dorm room because im so scared of interaction and taking to people, and whenever i go out i see all of these people with their friends and partners and i wish that could be me. i hate how autism has ruined my life :( but im wondering how i can make it better. I go to a huge greek life school where there isn't THAT much to do outside of bars and fraternities(which you can't even get into unless youre a woman) and I tried going to school clubs but all the meetings were just me and the club leaders, so they got canceled. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG :((
