I kind of know what you mean. I don't know what it is you haven't told them so it might not be the same sort of thing, but when I started uni I didn't tell my flatmates I was gay, even though my friends in my classes knew. It was silly really, and I never lied about it because they didn't ask, but I hid it at first because they were all straight guys and I thought I'd tell them after a few days because I wanted them to get to know me first. But the longer it went on the more difficult it got finding the right moment because you build it up in your head as a bigger thing than it actually is. Eventually one of my classmates was having a houseparty and my flatmates were also invited because of a mutual friend so I thought, right! I have to tell them before the party because I don't want them to find out from someone else. So like 10 minutes before we were due to leave I sat them all down (I was so nervous!) and I told them (I actually told one of them about 10 minutes before that just to test the waters lol) and it went really well. They weren't bothered at all, and they understood why I hadn't said anything before, and if anything I just felt like an idiot for assuming it would be a big deal haha. So my advice would be to bite the bullet, and if they're true friends they'll understand. If they don't then they probably aren't worth stressing over tbh
