She Has NO Right.

[SilentlyCrying]

There were rumors going around that I was gay, when I realized I don't think I am. That's okay, it's just a misconception. I talked to my guidance counselor about it, and she promised to talk to the people who started it. Well, she ended up telling my whole class I was gay... when I was right there! Here's how it went:
Our teacher left the room for the period, so she had to "babysit" us. The period before that, she was talking to the people who started the rumors, and asked if I was actually gay or not, even though I had told her the difference myself. When she came up with us, she brought teen sexuality books. Then, she was like, "Everyone knows someone who is gay. There is more then one gay person in this class." Then, she turned to me. Everyone looked too. Then she continued on, and I felt ashamed. I ran to the bathroom crying, because she was the only adult I ever trusted, and now I can't even do that. When I got back, I was talking to one of the people who started the rumor, and turns out, she didn't just ask if it was true, she told them that I was gay, along with telling my best friend, and a bunch of other people that she see's. I'm so upset right now... what should I do?!?!

That's not right of her. I'd go talk to her about it. You're bi, correct? Or Bicurious?
If she doesn't correct this mistake, or apologize somehow then you should talk to your parents. This might be a misunderstanding, but under any circumstances she shouldn't have done what she did.

I was bicurious, but I'm pretty sure asexual is my way. :P

XP You still have plenty of time to figure that out :) but yes, I agree. She had no right to tell these people your sexual preferences. She should have just quashed the rumour by saying it's not true.

That is awful, I would say you should report her. Everything you say to her should be confidential, just between her and yourself. As well as, of course, the small group of students she HAS to talk to to figure out what is going on. There is no excuse.
Best of luck.

Im pretty darn sure she misunderstood you. Like you said, she is the only person you trusted. And you just lost that person. But you can get her once again by explaining what happened to her and so on.

I missed my chance this morning. :/ She is there this afternoon, but this is the last time before Easter. And, I know one of her students she is busy with, so I'm kinda worried that I might not get to see her. Although, my anxiety is a plausible excuse at the moment; it's the reason why I stormed out of class crying and came home for lunch...
