Is it obligatory for the questioner to inform her friends of the necessity of concealing her teacher and deleting the inappropriate messages and pictures he sent to himself, or is her repentance and acquittal of her responsibility sufficient, knowing that these pictures may cause her problems? And does the teacher have a right over her that necessitates her forgiveness, or does it not matter if he forgives her? And does sin befall her if her friends expose him? And does she bear the sin of what may occur between him and girls or students of illicit acts because of her, even though she advised him to repent and acquitted her responsibility?

The error began with the trick and deception you used with your teacher by pretending to be a girl, and it involves forbidden espionage. You must repent of this. Part of perfecting your repentance is to seek your teacher's forgiveness. If he does not absolve you, then supplicate for him extensively.
You must advise your friends to stop publishing screenshots of the conversations. If they continue, you will not bear the consequence of that. We advise you to be steadfast, perform good deeds, and associate with the righteous. To cure obsessive thoughts, refer to the mentioned fatwas.
