So, I told my friend I was bi and that I liked him,so the way he reacted was first, he thought I was lying, then I told him that I wasn't lying, then he thought it was a joke,so now he is mad, and I don't know why,so now I'm wondering what I should do.

Let it alone for a while. He's probably in denial because he was always so sure you were straight, and may even be angry at himself. Give it time, this situation will get better.

That was an extremely brave thing for you to do and he isn't being a very good friend about the situation, but some people are like that. I'm sorry that it turned out like that for you, mabye it would be best if you give him some time to think things over, and if you feel like being bold confront him and say something like "yes I like you but that can pass, I care more about our friendship than my feelings for you" or something, so he can feel more comfortable arounf you again. The anger I think is just his was of expressing his confusion about the situation

Like the others say you did nothing wrong. He was probably just shocked and didn't know how to react. Give him some time to calm down and things should get easier. It can't have been easy for him to hear that you liked him all this time and you didn't tell him. Think about how you would feel in his shoes but it was very brave of you to tell him, I applaude you on your courage and don't let this put you off telling anyone else. People will react differently just give them time and they'll come around to accepting you for who you are hopefully.

I'm sure he's just trying to understand the situation he is in currently. When your friend comes out to you, and tells you he likes you, it can be very strange and new. Just give him time. :)

Brave of you to tell him mate, give it a little bit of time for him to cool of, then he should speak to you, if he doesnt try talking to him, in a way think of it the other way round, if he told you he was bi, and you wasnt expecting it, can come as a surprise and you wouldnt know what to say or do at the time, probably why he reacted the way he did, but yh just leave it a few hours and should go well mate :)
