Even if it doesnt bother her, she still knows and might internally be interpreting everything you say and do as to whether coming from a friend or from someone who is sexually interested in her.
All you can do is ask her if what you shared is making her uncomfortable to the point she doesnt want to hang with you. If so, then let her know that you will stop hanging around her then. And let it be a lesson to not share such news in the future with someone you know for sure to have a different sexual orientation than yourself. Put yourself in her shoes. As a lesbian, if a male friend told you he is attracted to you and wants to date you, how would you feel while just hanging out with him over a pizza watching his dream eyes, looking romantically at you even tho he knows you are gay. Would you feel like he might be hoping to change how you feel, as far as sexual orientation? See? It's not a good situation. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]
