Thank you for the lovely story, I had a similar experience rather recently. Sorry to hear about your "religious views".
I'm not quite sure what your question is--I don't think you need blame yourself theologically or otherwise. I think her own words did the explanation just fine: it wasn't her time yet, but another girl is out there for you.

Mary Immaculate, star of the morning
Chosen before the creation began
Chosen to bring for your bridal adorning
Woe to the serpent and rescue to man.
Sinners, we honor your sinless perfection;
Fallen and weak, for your pity we plead;
Grand us the shield of your sovereign protection,
Measure your aid by the depth of our need.
Bend from your throne at the voice of our crying,
Bend to this earth which your footsteps have trod;
Stretch out your arms to us, living and dying,
Mary Immaculate, Mother of God.
