My secret may have been revealed

[Verminicious Knid]

So I'm dating a guy and have been for nearly 3 weeks. Anyway, nobody in my school knows. But now 4 people know (On occasional speaking terms with all of them).

Should I be concerned it'll spread around or just face it?

Things like this have a chance of spreading really fast so you'd better be prepared that everyone knows.

Talk to them and ask them to keep quiet of you want too. I'm sure they will understand.
But be prepared for the worst, theses not garentee that its going to stay under wraps.

Nothing stays secret forever. Be prepared for the worst.

It will likely spread, even if you tell them to hush up. These things happen. Ask them to keep quiet anyways, it may not be too late. Good luck.

Nothing is ever truly secret anyway, even if you think it is, it will always be not as secret as you think. The best to do is just go head on in, face it because your concern won't really stop it. If you're facing it, it's a lot easier to deal with if something has spread around. However, if you're happy where you are and the relationship you're in, I wouldn't let it bother you honestly.

yeah I think a lot of stuff being a "secret" just means it's not talked about. At least you're prepared and know who it is and can talk to them. Best of luck.

As a fact, gossip spreads faster than a wildfire. So if the news breaks out remain calm, confident and act unconcerned about it. You shouldn't let people see you're worrying or they'll tease you and try to make your life hellish.

See this is one of those things that are, well, "different". Because it's different, it will probably attract a lot more attention. Of course you can't really do anything about it because it's out there now I guess. You could ask them to keep it to themselves, but they probably wouldn't even if they agreed to. Otherwise you could just embrace the fact that people know and be proud of it. You are yourself after all. If others can't accept you for who you are then good for them.

so how did these people find out? that's what you haven't explained?

[Verminicious Knid]

Pretty much down to my boyfriend telling a friend he thought he could trust.

I'm not really concerned anymore, because I figured if it were to get out, it would have gotten out already. It's an encouraging thought that when I had a feeling I was outted, I went out and faced the world defiant and brave, even if it was for nothing.

Hold your head up, be proud of who you are and enjoy having your bf.
People will gossip, secrets will always find a way out somehow, but you be the one in control and never be ashamed :)
