[SIZE="a"][SIZE="a"]Hi random person on the internet, I don't know what exactly the rules for posting are but, I'd like to ask you strangers out in the world what to do.

My friends and I are pretty close, we hang out almost every day. I'll call them Ria, Ally, and Orion. My friend Ally is out and is pansexual, she's the only one who has dated so far. She and her girlfriend broke up a while ago. Orion is just our friend. Ria and I are both closeted. I'm a trans pan boy and Ria has told me not to disclose her identity.

So, my problem is that Ally and Orion keep outing me and Ria. They don't realize that they are doing it. Like in Health class, the teacher talked about gender and Ally and Orion both turned stared at me. Or whenever someone says closet they make a closet joke or coming out jokes to Ria. It's fine, but we'd rather not be outed, as there are 70+ kids in the grade and most of them have ties to my mom and Ria's dads.

I'm scared of coming out and also scared that somebody will find out because of them. Also, if I tell them to stop, then it will tear apart out friend group, which consists of four people. Anybody know what to do? Or if anyone else is going through something similar?

Thanks for listening to me, yet another stranger on the internet.[/size][/size]
