It usually means that a girl or guy is behaving in a teasing or sexy way that dupes someone (or several people) into thinking that they will be willing to have sex and/or a relationship with them, but at the last minute they back out of the deal and don't go through with it
(a girl) has been leading on (a guy) for months letting him think that something was going to happened between them but she finaly backed out when (the guy) asked her to be his GF

When a person, through actions or words, leads you to believe that a relationship and/or sex will happen sometime in the future, when in fact they had no intention of either.

Ethan: "What?"

Josh: "It's when someone tells you something nice will happen but then it doesn't and it ruins your entire life."
