 Being honest is great but telling people everything in one big go after a short space of time can be a lot for them to take in, that is not saying you shouldnt tell him though.
Try telling him things slowly, that way you have time to see how well he deals with it, if you asks questions and seems to listen and care what you say then tell him more, if he seems scared or unsure what to say give him some time to take it in before discussing it again.
