    Is there any reason to keep it a secret? I'm assuming eventually you're going to have to explain why your roommate of 15 years sleeps in the same bed as you, when your parents come to visit. Sure that is a good 20-some years down the road, but if you don't have a reason to keep it a secret now, why even bother?

    How was he reacting? Was it more of OMG and freaking out? Or was it more calm?

    If it was the latter, I have the strange feeling he'll be ok with it, it tells me he really just wants to know more about you. Chances are if he was calm, he may have been trying to tell you he wants you to know you can talk to him about anything.
