Ok, first of all, you need to get some things going outside of this relationship. You are WAY too focused on it right now, and that isn't going to help anything. Do you have a job? If not, get one. Even if it's just working at a store, get yourself out doing something and meeting people. You say the things you are interested in, no one else is. That can't possibly be true. Make friends--do everything you can to meet new people. Yeah, it's tough, I've never been a social butterfly either, but if you start TRYING, you'd be surprised. Look for social events, activities, classes, sports. Even if you're not that interested in the focus of whatever the thing is, it puts you in situations to meet new people, and that is EXACTLY what you need right now.
Secondly, you need to realize that this girl is not the be all and end all of women. Yeah, you love her, but a lot of the time, that just isn't enough. She needs to love you back, and it sounds like (at the very least) she doesn't know if she does. You need to let her figure that out. Back away from it. You said she lives in a distant city. Stop visiting her for a while. Stop talking to her for a while. Give yourself at least three months. If she wants to be with you, she'll come around, if she doesn't, then it's good you found that out. First loves are the hardest to get over, but you get over them, and you a learn a hell of a lot about relationships in the process. So, back off from her right now--and NO sex, NO sleeping over, none of that. If that comes up again, you need to tell her that if she doesn't love you and doesn't want to be with you, then she doesn't get the perks of being in a relationship with you.
So, 1) tell her that if she doesn't want to be in a relationship with you, then you need some time apart to clear your head. 2) Get away from her. Get out, make new friends, get involved in things. Get some things in your life other than her. 3) Profit?
I'm not going to say it's easy, because it's not at all. But it's what you need to do. It never feels like it, but your life will go on after her. Don't be strung along like this.
