Hey Forever,
Dusty nailed it on the head. She obviously has her own issues. I can't imagine someone saying the the things she did to you because you told her how you feel about her. It is just well "ODD".
I know that what she said hurts but do not believe it! She is the one with the problem not you. As for you being in you're late 20's, it took me to the age of 33 to find my partner. I used to think what is wrong with me, why can't I find somene to love. Sometimes you have to wade through a lot of **** before you meet someone.
I just never gave up even though I wanted too.
As for being in the same circle with interests, it is going to be hard to face her. But do not give up on the things you enjoy doing, that will only make you feel worse. She was way out of bounds and you can rise above it, give yourself sometime.
Know that you are not alone and that there are people who can support and help you along the way.
