Javascript Toggle : Hide div on click of anywhere

Question

I have two divs. When I click on 3 dots , then the div is appearing and on clicking the same 3 dots , same div is disappearing. But I want to hide the div, even if I click anywhere in the document.

There are two circles. When I click on one circle, then a div is shown and when I click on another circle, then the opened div is closing and related div is opening but when I click anywhere on the document, then none of the div are closing.

$("#discussion_declined , #discussion_pending").click(function() {
  var relatedDiv = $(this).closest('.panel').find('.discussion_edit_div');
  relatedDiv.toggle("fast");
  $('.discussion_edit_div').not(relatedDiv).hide('fast');

});

.discussion_small_round_div {
  width: 25px;
  height: 25px;
  border-radius: 50%;
  position: relative;
  background: #2d3446;
  bottom: 9px;
  left: 15px;
  float: right;
}
.discussion_small_round_div:after {
  content: '\2807';
  font-size: 1.5em;
  color: white;
  position: absolute;
  left: 9px;
  top: 1px;
}
.discussion_edit_div {
  background: #FFFFFF;
  display: none;
  position: absolute;
  right: 35px;
  border: thin #ced0d1 solid;
  z-index: 1001;
  width: 150px;
  box-shadow: 0px 3px 3px #ccc;
}
ul li {
  padding: 5px 15px;
  list-style-type: none;
  color: #838383;
}
ul li:hover {
  background: #eeeded;
  cursor: pointer;
}

How Bootstrap handles this is interesting. They have a mask, and the only thing you can click is the mask or the items in the menu.

$(function () {
  $(".mask").hide();
  $("nav > ul > li > a").click(function () {
    $(this).closest("li").addClass("open");
    $(".mask").show();
    return false;
  });
  $(".mask").click(function () {
    $(this).hide();
    $(".open").removeClass("open");
  });
});

* {font-family: 'Segoe UI'; margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; line-height: 1; box-sizing: border-box;}
body {background-color: #f5f5f5;}
a {text-decoration: none; color: inherit;}

.mask {position: fixed; top: 0; bottom: 0; right: 0; left: 0; z-index: 8;}

nav > ul > li {display: inline-block; position: relative; width: 30%;}
nav > ul > li a {display: block; padding: 5px; border: 1px solid #ccc;}
nav > ul ul {position: absolute; left: 0; right: 0; z-index: 9; display: none;}
nav > ul > li.open > ul {display: block;}

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.2.4.js"></script>
<div class="mask"></div>
<nav>
  <ul>
    <li>
      <a href="">Main Item 1</a>
      <ul>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 1</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 2</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 3</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 4</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 5</a></li>
      </ul>
    </li>
    <li>
      <a href="">Main Item 2</a>
      <ul>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 1</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 2</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 3</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 4</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 5</a></li>
      </ul>
    </li>
    <li>
      <a href="">Main Item 3</a>
      <ul>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 1</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 2</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 3</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 4</a></li>
        <li><a href="">Sub Item 5</a></li>
      </ul>
    </li>
  </ul>
</nav>

Praveen's answer is nice but you can also achieve the same without tweaking your HTML.

Just add this to your jQuery:

$(window).click(function() {
//Hide the menus if visible
$('.discussion_edit_div').hide('fast');
});

$("#discussion_declined , #discussion_pending").click(function(e) {
  e.stopPropagation();
  var relatedDiv = $(this).closest('.panel').find('.discussion_edit_div');
  relatedDiv.toggle("fast");
  $('.discussion_edit_div').not(relatedDiv).hide('fast');

});

And your are good to go.

This achieves one more thing which is that once you have opened one ul, then you can directly toggle to another ul by clicking once. In Praveen's answer you have to click twice in order to open the other ul.
