You need to put yourself in situations to meet people. As a woman, you do have the advantage that society expects men to approach you.
Are you not encountering this?

You will here this prejudice again and again. If you instead want to relie on scientific databases: NT-men expect you to send them unspoken signals by eye- and bodylanguage, that tells them that you agree with them approaching you and talk to you. That can be a bit of a problem for ans Apergerwoman,, because it means to send a men a signal that you agree with his interest to talk to you, you first have to recognize yourself by his eye- and bodylanguage, that he is interested to do so. So if you lack with recognizing and sending eye- and bodylanguage, this can be a hard task for you.
So there are guys, that do not accept this social rules and simply speak to any woman they meet, because they want to insist on their unscientific theory, that they are the poor victims that they have to approach all day women that didnt sent them signals to approach them, to feel as victims, but the thing is: Do you want a boyfriend that doesnt have the respect to knock on someones door, and wait until someone tells him to enter?
My advice would be: Increase your social contacts by going to hobby-groupmeetings and so on. (If you are a comicfan as example cons and forums and so on...). And when you are uncertain if someone sends you signals (I never was able to recognize them.) then ask another person, what he/she thinks that the person you are unsure about thinks about you. Normally they will give you little tips like: "It seems to me, that he likes you/is interested in you." and so on. As I said, I had struggles recognizing such signals, so once I was in a hobby club and it seemed that two boys were sending me signals for more then one year, and everyone thought I would know about that, and when finally someone asked me about it, I was completly surprised and didnt even know how to handle it. Specially, when I had a boyfriend around that time, what everyone knew.

First and foremost, you need to put yourself out there. Secondly, do not turn guys down because of minor flaws.
So, where does she have to put herself out to?
By volunteering, by hanging out with friends that can introduce you to other people, or for that matter online dating. She can also try to take the active role--a lot of guys would like that.

OP, to get a boyfriend you need:
-A giant net.
-Beef jerkey as lure.
-To attend your guy's favorite teams' soccer match (or if you are a gamer any comic-con or expo).
Okay, got those? Then onto the next two piece of advice!
-Be sure to wear as much revealing clothing as possible to reduce your prey's resistance.
-Once captured, they can be nurtured with episodes of Family Guy or other Earthly pleasures.
Happy hunting!

I was gonna say something like this, but since I'm a guy I don't really understand what you have to do to get guy's attention, so I thought my advice wouldn't be worth anything and so I didn't make a post.
If you have trouble communicating to guys that you are open to being approached, maybe you could do the approaching, or maybe you could do online dating. I like online dating because I know everyone there is interested in dating. In the real world a woman might not be interested in being approached at any given moment, or maybe she just wouldn't like me if I did. If I'm in public, usually I am focused on something like shopping, or work, and it is very difficult for me to transition to a flirting mind-set, even if I wanted to, and I'm not very good at flirting anyway. It gets depressing and exhausting to approach dozens of women when none of them work out. I might try a pay site. Pay sites are good for men because they are less likely to be treated like spam, and they are good for women who are interested in a serious relationship because probably most of the men who are willing to pay are interested in that too.
The OP is very young, so it might be difficult to find somebody who's interested in a serious relationship (if that's what you're interested in). I think it is probably easier for girls though, because it is more socially acceptable for girls to date older men than vise versa, and older people are typically more interested in serious stuff. You may also want to keep in mind that despite what I said earlier, people might think it would be strange to see a 17 year old on eHarmony (I think they might have an age restriction anyway).

I endorse this message.
Well I guess I will type a more serious response now.
OP first of all you need to tell us what kind of stereotype your realistic boyfriend would met. From there age, location (As in if you live in North America or Europe), and finally willingness to pursue said boyfriend. After that we can help a lot more.

She said she want to find a boyfriend, means a person she can connect with, someone she can shaer her feelings and oppinions, someone you can relie on. See did not say, that she was seeking a walking male sexdoll.
I say tell a guy you like them and forget the "scientific" theories. Its BS.
I mean a guy will appreciate it more if you make it obvious you like them. I mean otherwise you are going tom create a lot of confusion on both sides. And you do not want to do that. Most guys are oblivious to subtle body language from women.
Just my opinion.
