Well I would start with the gay part and leave out the other part until you know how they feel about you being gay. If they are not gay you might want to keep the feelings you have for them to yourself, otherwise you might lose a friend just because they may feel uncomfortable being around someone who likes them when they don't feel the same way. So start with the "I'm gay" part and leave the rest off until later.
Good Luck.

Probably best to not tell them that you have a crush on them. If that person is not gay and you make an advance towards them, they will feel very uncomfortable which could affect your friendship.
Being honest about your sexuality should be ok if it is a true friend that loves you no matter what. They shouldn't care if you are gay or not.

Start by telling him the truth, that your gay. But if he's not gay
DO NOT tell him, you have feeling for him. He might just turn
around a sucker punch you. Just remember your relationship
might turn, because he might not be able to by pass that your
gay and might start ignoring you. If that is the case then just
leave it alone until he can understand and respect you for who
you are. If he tells you he feels the same way and didn't know
how to tell you. Then go hang out with one another and don't
worry about a thing. If he excepts you for how you are then
thank him for his understanding.

Write a letter or just tell them face to face. Start the conversation by asking your friend how he feels about gays and what he/she would do if someone of the same sex came onto them.If he/she really was your friend you would tell them. Its not easy but have confidence in yourself

If this is your best friend, and can't tell that you are not interested in the opposite sex, nor have you given them any hints about your lifestyle. Then I wouldn't tell them. they may not give you the reaction you would want. You should try to find a way to ease the information to them without possibly threatening the friendship.

tell them now and suffer the concequinces because if they are a true friend it wont matter but some day people will find out and when they do your friends will always be razzed and kidded by people who think that is the only reason they let you hang around..who knows your friends may have been the ones who wanted to write this letter and you can all go to HELL together

Number one: you can feel total love for your male best friend, it is totally natural. However, in my opinion (to which I am entitled), it is a breach of your friendship to try to take things any further. Is this the only reason you say your are gay, for if it is, you are no more gay that I am. Keep his friendship, treasure it and for God's sake don't tell him anything.................
Number two: You are lucky if during the course of your life, you find one true 'best friend' - don't spoil it..............
