So...
she tells me how much she likes me, how amazing I am, how attracted to me she is. I tell her how I feel about her, as well as a bunch of shit from my childhood I've only told my closest friends.
I sleep over at her place. We fool around. A lot. I allow myself to be more vulnerable than I've ever been before. Yeah, it's a little terrifying, but overall it's pretty magical. So magical in fact, that I almost lose my virginity to her. She wanted to have sex with me, and I wanted it too, but decided to wait since I didn't know her that well.
And thank god for that because today she told me 'she wasn't really into it' and even though it's obvious something's happening, and things are really intense betweeen us, 'she's only falling for me as a friend.' Who the fuck says that?
I don't know about you guys, but when I like someone as a friend, I don't try to fuck them.
I feel so confused, so used, so hurt, so completely mislead.
I come out, try and meet other glbt people, make myself so vulnerable...for what?
This?
I'm so stunned and hurt right now I can't even cry. I just don't get her.
And yeah...I feel used because guess what? I would really prefer only being intimate with people who actually LIKE me - surprise, surprise!
I want to find a nice girl who doesn't just want me for...hell, I don't even know what she wanted from me!
Honestly though, right now I feel so jaded, I think it will be really hard for me to trust someone again.
I...don't really have anything else to type; I just feel so incredibly horrible and bad about myself. Maybe I'm just not attractive enough, or funny enough, or smart enough. Maybe I just don't have whatever it is that is supposed to make people want to have a relationship with me.
This is stupid, I know; and trust me, I know it's not healthy to think this way. Usually I have more confidence. Just now, I feel like hell.

Pronouns make it hard to keep our sexual orientation a secret when our co-workers ask about your weekend.
- I had a GREAT time with...them.
Yay, now they don't think you're queer, just a slut!
It sounds like this is
It sounds like this is scaring her. Or she was using you, or maybe it was too intense to start. Sometimes moving too fast is a bad idea.
I know it feels like shit right now, but try not to take it too personally. She definitely led you on, and definitely isn't ready to accept whatever might have been going on between you. Sometimes the chemistry just doesn't work out. That doesn't mean you aren't attractive or will never find anyone else. Don't worry. There will be others.
I wouldn't suggest dating anyone else right now, as it sounds like you just had a pretty intense experience that will take a bit to get over, especially as it sounds like it might be one of your first. I got used a bit by my first girlfriend--god, it was an utter mess--and I haven't completely gotten over it yet. I've eventually gotten out though, you know, started dating again. Even if someone else completely fucks up it doesn't mean that you're a mess. Also keep in mind that if you're feeling so vulnerable, maybe you should build up your confidence a bit before you go out into the dating world again... As my friends constantly remind me, relationships are not for the faint of heart. They take a lot of work and effort and worry, too, and it's good to be in a good place in yourself before you start one.
It's hard to date as a queer teen. There aren't a ton of options. People can get desperate. Just make sure you're staying true to yourself. And don't worry. Eventually this will pass and you will find someone that is ready to commit to you again.
