Thanks everybody, your comments have been helpful. I'm not ashamed of having a disorder, just curious as to why a lot doesn't match. Maybe I just outgrew a lot of the symptoms as I got older.
It's common with Asperger's for symptoms to lessen with age, but not that quick! It wouldn't be a disorder if you just grew out of it in a few years. Asperger's is a lifelong struggle.
Was I wrongly diagnosed with Asperger's?

Apparently it's common with Asperger's for symptoms to lessen with age. So it's a possibility.
Some people are misdiagnosed, mind you, so it's also plausible you never had it.
Either way it doesn't matter. If this label no longer fits, then there's no point worrying about it :)
