hmm.... maybe i'm wrong in saying, but i think you should just suck it up and deal with it, it's kidna fucked up to tell people that, whether you trust whoever you're telling or not... that's teh type of shit that can ruin lives... i've seen it happen, my best friend is gay, and when he came out in high school his life was living hell for a good while....

doesn't get much shit now adays, but back then he was at the point of suicide...

you literally may very well have wrecked the dude's life... i think you need to tell him you're sorry at the very least and it was never your intention for the outcome that happened... then spend the rest of your life making it up to him.. it's not like breaking a bowl or soemthing that you can just replace, everyone knows now and the damage is done... it's time for you to step up and start trying to make restitution...
