You need therapy. Self diagnosed personality disorders never turn out well. You're introverted, probably depressed. You don't sound emotionless you sound emotionally drained.
A trained therapist can help you figure out if you're depressed, if you're missing some brain chemicals, etc etc. Find a counselor, talk to someone. Opening up is a process that you have to begin, if you keep waiting for someone to light the fires you'll be sitting there alone for the rest of your life.

If you see her in real life that's a different story because that means clearly you do have emotions even if you think you don't everyone does. It doesn't make sense.

However, we can change ourselves.
So, if you think you've met someone whose love has 'saved you', I would say you've either saved yourself, or it wont last.
You are experiencing guilt about hurting others, which makes me suspect you aren't completely emotionless. Obviously I can't and won’t diagnose you at all, but it's very possible you are experiencing emotional deadening, and that’s a symptom of a lot of mental illness AND physical illnesses. Many of those can be treated and/or cured.
Please, get yourself checked out by a doctor, and referred to a mental health professional if need be. Although very little can be done for people who truly have no empathy or emotional experience in their brains, there are often ways to support and help people who are suffering from emotional deadening for some reason or another.
