Never, though I'm sure everybody is just "polite" enough to say it behind my back. That, or they're all going to spring it on me when I least expect it. THE HORROR.

Hate to break it to you but creepy is referring to your looks, not your behavior. Women call men "Creepy", aspie and NT alike, when they don't find us sexually attractive. Obviously it's not socially acceptable to call men ugly in public, so creepy is used instead. If we were better looking, it would be "cute and shy", not "weird and creepy".
I am not sure I agree with that.

No, it doesn't. A guy isn't creepy because you don't find him attractive, but he is if he refuses to accept that.

Always.
I was at a party one night at three am, and some girl walks up to me, and says, "Where the **** did you just come from?" I was so quiet that nobody noticed me. My friend walks into the room and the girl says, "Is your friend special?" He says leave him the **** alone. That's Doug. I tried making conversation with the girl, and told her I was a Libra, and Libras tend to be a little off, and she looked like she saw a ghost. She backed into the kitchen and left.
My first girlfriend in CA dumped me the day after I found out I had Aspergers. I was on my way to my friend's house, and through the window heard he was on the phone with her, and she said, "I feel like I'm dating a child." I listened to the conversation before knocking, and heard a lot of stuff.
I often catch a conversation that wasn't supposed to be for my ears.
The most common thing I get, is that I'm immature, and creepy.

Both of you are either lying or delusional. A good-looking aspie would never get called creepy. It would be all "oh look, he's so shy! Isn't that cute!". But if a man approaches a woman and she doesn't find him attractive, he gets called "creepy", whether or not the approach was awkward. That's how life works.

No rudeness intended; I'm just telling it like it is.

Yes, I do set off the "creepy" alarms from time to time.
I get it for being quiet. That's my #1 way for hitting the creepy button all my life. People are so paranoid or manipulative about that.
For catching too many mistakes (have to remind myself to stop early or I'll make people anxious/creep them out, and then the mistakes double, lol).
For solving the occassional puzzle too quickly.
For being too introspective when answering a question. And people shouldn't ask questions they really don't want the answer to.
I will admit that answers to questions about special interests can make people's head swim and that can get a "creepy" comment sometimes, or the sheer amount of information shared can get a "creepy" comment.

I get called creepy, strange, or weird quite often. I am sure they are right in that regard.

"Romance" may be the international language, but "creep" is spoken universally.

Yes, many times. Even a waiter said that once. According to my girlfriend, there is a problem with my posture and looking. My default posture seems threatening for other people I suppose.

When I was in high school, several classmates told me about my threatening and creepy look. However, I had also been bullied many times in high school. Also, some people were making fun of me because of my creepy posture and looking. This seems ridiculous, yet it is true.
