Well, I'd say just the fact that you seem hesitant about coming out is a possible red flag. I mean, once you're out, it's hard to get back in, ya know? What makes you think this friend will tell? Does she have a bad track record with keeping secrets? If not, you could come out to her and ask her not to tell, and hopefully, she'll respect your wishes. Are your friends supportive of you? Are the supportive of gay rights? You could try 'testing the waters'. Bring up a gay issue, any gay issue, and get their thoughts on it, and see if those thoughts are generally negative or positive. That would give you an idea on what to expect if you come out.
Also, are you secure in your sexuality? It would be best to come out when you have fully accepted that you're gay/bi/whatever, in my experience. Just in case, you know?
