“The cat’s out of the bag”


This saying is a great one to use when you have the right opportunity. It basically means that the secret is out in the open and is no longer a secret. Imagine this situation:

“Double Life”


If someone is leading a “double life” it means that in one area of their life they act a certain way and portray a certain image, whereas in another area of their life they act and behave completely differently; hence the term “double life”. Usually the reason that the person needs to portray two different characters is that they have some secret part of their life that they don’t want other people to know about.
