Time to bring heavy metal to this party. This is a song by power metal/thrash metal Iced Earth, called "Stand Alone". I was hoping for something by Megadeth, but they don't have any songs that end peacefully concerning relationships:
This song doesn't represent ALL aspies, but it does have some common features with the song, like the first two stanzas, which speaks about being consider a freak and not belonging to other people, and how we shouldn't care what other people think about us, since ignorance can kill when people follow a certain idea that is untrue (like you have to have a gf, you have to be in a relationship, if you don't, what value do you have?)
The main thing that I like about this song is the refrain "Stand Alone", which I think represents my views romantically. I used to spend some much time and effort chasing after women because I so desperately wanted to be in a relationship. I made myself miserable searching in vain, until I gave up, and said "I don't care anymore, if women aren't interested in me, why the hell should I be interested in them?!" I finally gave up trying and accepted "Standing Alone", not chasing after the thing that makes many people miserable, and I learned to accept loneliness. It doesn't mean I'm not attracted to women physically, it means that I accept being alone and acknowledge that I don't need them to be happy. Learning to stand alone is difficult, but it can be done.

Lyrics:
Listen not to ones who preach
Those who feel you're a freak
Everything about you is wrong
You must be sick, you don't belong
Father said, worry not what they say
Use your mind, your own free will
In a time when everyone follows
Ignorance can kill
They only say what they want you to hear
Half-truths have been twisted to conceal your fate
In a world of spoon-fed emotion
Intelligence can save
Stand alone
Hear what I say
Stand alone
You will seize the day
Son, say what you mean, don't be afraid
Tell them how you feel, hear what I say
Be true to yourself and true to your own
Your spirit will crush the hearts of stone
Stand alone
Hear what I say
Stand alone
It's a leap of faith
