Someone opened up to me. I listened. I believed. I didn't blame. What else should I know?

...See more Hi! A friend of mine opened up to me about being sexually abused as a child. He hasn't told anybody. He hasn't told anyone for over 30 years. After he opened up to me, the next day he told me he still felt numb from opening up. I am very worried about him and I would like to ask anybody who has any advice for me on what to do and what not to do, what to say and what not to say, please give me your advice. Like should I pretend he never told me? Should I never mention it unless he mentions it first? He has hurt enough, I don't need to hurt him more. But it's hard for me to know that I can't do anything, so the least I can do is not make things worse. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.
