I'm Finally Out!!!!!!

Me and my friend were talking in geography, when a boy in my geography group, who is very outwardly gay, came up to me and said
"Are you gay?" he expected me to say no, but I just told him " not exactly" and he was really akward for a minute or two, then said, "bi?" I told him yes and we had a conversation aboutthat and how he's sure no-one will mind, as they don't mind him. I don't know whether he has told anyone yet, but I'm still nervous as to how the rest of my classmates will take it.
