So today in class one of my friends (who is a girl) asked me who I have crush on. I wanted to say that I was gay but couldn't because there were people there that I don't want to reveal that info to. Any advice on when and where I should tell her?
A few facts
-she is accepting of lgbt people
-nobody knows I'm gay
- I'm male and 13 years old

Only come out to people when you know you're ready to. The when and where of it is actually all up to you but maybe do it in a quieter place (Not in class, Outside of school) if you're worried about others overhearing.

follow your feelings about people when you decide to come out to them, if you have an odd feeling about them, then dont trust your secret with them; if you feel good about them, then trust them to keep your secret. the time and place you do it is all up to you, but outside of school would be my best advice. good luck

I agree with captain canada. Do it when you feel comfortable and ready. If you feel like you can trust her, and you already know she is accepting, then I think it's safe. Do it privately if you don't want anybody to overhear, that way you can have an unrestricted conversation about it too.

when you are ready, just talk to her in a quiet place alone with her

Just tell her in a quiet place, don't make a big thing, just like "Ohh, by the way, thought you should know since we're friends, I'm gay", that's what I always do, served me well.

Wait until you're in a private place with her to tell her, and only do so if you trust her enough. If you don't think you're ready to tell her, wait.

just tell her in private. coming out really takes a burden off your shoulders.
