DLS

Short for "Dirty Little Secret"

Self-explanatory. A secret thing (such as a love affair, or shameful thought) that you don't want anybody to know. The phrase was popularized by the song "Dirty Little Secret" by the All-American Rejects.

Yeah, we see each other every week and my wife doesn't know. She's my DLS.

The DL

These homosexual encouters happen purely for sex not a relationship or emotional connection. Over 73% of black males, as reported on Oprah, are on The DL.

J.L. King on Oprah, was once on "The DL."
