Did she say it on her own, or did she respond to what you said, in order to be polite?
I actually don't the exact words but I recall we were sitting in my car looking at the ocean and she breathed in my ear and smiled and said "I love you" or something to that effect. Her breathing into my ear was more memorable than the words she used.
I can totally see this. I miss this sort of thing.

She thought I would understand but I immediately suspected she wanted to get second opinions about me from her friends
This never occurred to me. I would have assumed that she was just using her friends as an excuse to flake. I guess your version of this sounds better. In my version she rejected me and is flaking. In your version she hasn't decided whether to reject you or not. In fact she is seriously considering being with you, as evident by her asking the opinion of her friends.
But I do see how asking friends opinion is also unfair. I remember I been rejected due to friends opinion, and I was pissed. Because this sort of thing implies that whoever is unpopular will be kept unpopular, which is a self perpetuating circle. And since, as it is, I am unpopular, then its like what am I supposed to do? I wish I had a chance to have a fresh start where I was evaluated for myself rather than popular opinion.

So what did you do? Did you just end it yourself, or what happened?
I ghosted her.
I thought you were saying she kept postponing it over and over. But now you are saying she just postponned it once and you ghosted?

I heard through a mutual friend she was asking around why I never called her back
So both you and her have some valuable resource that I don't have. Namely, I don't have an option of "asking around" about various people. No wonder I am so clueless. Could it be that my main problem is not just Asperger but lack of network?
