I highly doubt because you have a disorder has anything to do with this is all honestly.Since it's been brought up, I guess that I should clarify that in recent years I was diagnosed with ASD level-1, which is essentially Asperger's (they don't specifically call it that anymore though). I was nearly 30, which is a pretty late diagnosis and it could have been more useful to me had it been discovered earlier, but oh well.
I don't feel like I lack empathy either. It's just that I never get particularly invested in any sort of fictional setting (why? because it's not real o_O), and therefore that includes its characters. Maybe weird for someone who likes playing video games all the time, I guess.
You just don't feel attached to a character to the degree of OP...Just like many of us here lol.
And here we go again...

Same here ..
I’m in love with Alisae.
Garrus Vakarian gave me some super warm fuzzies. I romanced his character every playthrough of the Mass Effect series when I could.
If I were a video game character in the world of Final Fantasy XIV, I'd absolutely chase after Hein. I like his character. Crystal Exarch is nice too but his original character grated on me just a tad at first.
What the hell did I just read? ..
No, I don't feel attached to fictional characters/settings *at all*. There's a pretty important distinction there, as many times in my life I've been left to feel like an outsider in a group when discussing media because most people CAN do those things. Fiction/fantasy wouldn't be as popular as an overall genre if they couldn't.I highly doubt because you have a disorder has anything to do with this is all honestly.

Being able to experience love/infatuation for a fictional character is on another level entirely, but even the levels below that are pretty much an enigma to me.
Aymeric is love~ Aymeric is life~ He's my character's #1 beloved!
Maybe I have no feelings but I thought the Crystal Exarch was kinda boring. He's a bro and willing to sacrifice himself to save WoL but the other Scions would be too.
