macking on the sly 

Covert flirting between two people. Because they have to keep their true feelings for each other secret, for whatever reason (i.e. they work together, one is married, etc.).
"Those two can't seem to stand each other! They're always fighting over something!"

"Wrong, man. It's all a front they put up. They're actually macking on the sly."

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Huge. Surpassing normal expectations.
I was fishing with a Spinner Bait and a HONKIN pike came after it and hit it . Felt like a lawnmower running over a brick.
