I'd say it has to do with difficulty reading social situations. Saying "I Love You" is a risky thing. If you say it at the wrong time, it can result in things being very awkward. If you don't say it, there's basically no consequence.
I think it's harder for people with ASD to know when it's appropriate to say it, so we never say it at all (or more rarely than NTs anyway).
This 100%. To me it feels like it is never appropriate for me to ever say it.
