Its difficult for non-autistic people to just make friends, so don't beat yourself up - you may have tried too hard and spooked her, you may have said something she didn't like, but you don't have the feedback to know for sure so guessing is not helpful.

Its better to learn about these things, and ourselves, be more confident about yourself and how you interact with people.

You can't just be friends with someone you like, its better to wait for a friendship to develop over time.

You can improve your chances of making and keeping friends by studying how people work. I recommend a book called "Games People Play" by Eric Berne,

It's kind of a dummies guide to how most human beings structure their relationships.

But way cheaper, available used on eBay!
