Need some advice. Questions about coming out and such.

So I'm a 16yo sophomore in a catholic high school which about 250 people attend. The community is great and I love all the people, but I'm pretty sure about 60-70% of them are homophobic. So basically I came to terms with my sexuality a few months ago and it's been in my mind ever since. I wanted to wait a while to come out because 1) just to make sure I was actually gay 2) to wait until I know my friends won't hate me, and 3) I didn't think I wanted to do it at my small, religious high school. However. I got really emotional one night and decided to tell 3 of my friends that I was kind of "sexually confused." Now, I have been friends with these 3 since like 5th grade. We're a closely knit group, especially because of our small school. But they're all guys. And I feel like it's gonna be really awkward for them and they're gonna think that I'm a sex hungry maniac and I want to have sex with all of them- which I definitely don't. Basically my question is- people who have come out and had only straight male friends at the time, was it awkward between you? Did they act differently around you? What changed?
