Having facial hair similar to a biker dude OR missing spots when shaving.

Glad to hear you're doing well with it. I identify completely with you. I have absolutely no idea when someone flirts with me.

From what I've learned in the last 27 years is this; be yourself. I know it's cliche to say that, but it's cliche for a reason. I have gotten to the point where I don't care what anyone thinks of me, and I do what I want. They tell me I'm weird, and stop talking to me, or they tell me I'm weird and ask for second date. Being yourself is being honest, people appreciate that, at least the type of person who could love an Aspie.

I was never very good at pulling off being "normal" so I don't even try any more. I do try to treat people well and help them out if I can. The general result of this is pretty much being an outsider anywhere I go which can get lonely. Apart from a few positive experiences like this one now, I've found that most people just aren't interested in putting in the effort it takes to get to know a person like me.

I agree with the advice to be myself but I would add that your mileage will vary greatly depending on who you are.
