I came out to my friend and then he came out. Help!

The title pretty much says it all. Over the past week or so I've come to terms with the fact that I am gay and yesterday was the day I told one of my best friends who came over for the weekend. He was the first person I told face to face. I told him, I cried, it was emotional and he was accepting and I felt super relieved.Today we went out for a few drinks and out of the blue he told me that he is gay too. I am so f*cking confused. It was hard enough for me to handle my own coming out and now he told me he's gay too. I wanna support him 100% because he works for the military and he's surrounded by conservative people and he's sure his parents can't handle it, but I can't say this was what I expected my first night after coming out to someone to be like.I have such mixed feelings at the moment. On one hand I feel super bad for him because his situation is way worse than mine, but on the other hand I feel lucky that I'm surrounded by people who I'm sure will accept me. Coming out to my parents still scares the crap out of me but I'm 90% sure they'll be okay with it.These have been the weirdest two days of my life.AAAGHHH!
