Oh just someone wanting to shock the unshockable
I canโt be arsed with it all
I ll leave your Aunt to her amorous friend
Could you live on a cruise ship?
My auntie 83 (late mum's sister) DH died 3 weeks ago.
Funeral was last Friday 28th.
Today one of uncles friends 87 asked her for a date.
As in his words 'life is to short to be on our own '
And it was definitely a date dinner and maybe a dance.

I would have said a 'friend with benefits' as opposed to CF, and I did not recognise that meaning given by the OP of those two
letters, and it really seems rather crude.
If pressed, I would say the two letters would mean a 'charity f..k', which is what the uncle might have been looking for? Or perhaps her aunt? I also think some chemical help may be a necessity for such an event!

It's a term that describes a man who does what men do to a woman -using vulgar words beginning with C and F.
No it isn't!
"Cheeky f****r is a term applied to anyone male, female or otherwise, who does or says something which is generally regarded as too forward or with a sense of entitlement.. One can be called a CF for parking across someone's driveway, for example., or inviting someone to dinner then asking them to pay their share. Nothing to do with sex, necessarily.To clarify further, we more genteel Gransnetters would be more likely to say "Cheeky B****r.
The C is often not "cheeky' but a vulgar word for a part of the female anatomy with y on the end.
๐Well I don't pretend to be an authority on the matter but since the point of the label (CF) is to suggest to someone that what they had done or said was rather impertinent or asking for something beyond what would be deemed acceptable or appropriate, the vulgar substitute you mention just wouldn't work - it wouldn't carry the same connotations as "cheeky beggar", "cheeky blighter" etc. When people talk about "The C word" of course they are referring to that hideous word for female anatomy but this is a completely different context.
BTW (By the way!) I've never seen or heard CF used in the way you report above.
Educate yourself! Plenty are saying exactly the same as me. It's common usage.

Well I thought I ess doing quite well keeping up with the various definitions of CF and MN etc but now you've completely floored me with a part if the female anatomy that begins with c and ends with y.
Is it me?
Hi Nanny27
Take the four-letter C-word and put a y on the end to change it into an adjective. If you don't know what the four-letter C word is, private message me!!!
Donโt care what CF means, but please donโt mix this poster up with Wyllow2.
Candy Floss.
CF = Cheeky F***er !!!
I have problems with all the abbreviations. Can someone explain them to me please.

OldFrill, on MN, the C in CF (or in C-Fery) does always stand for โcheekyโ.

Absolute tosh. It means sly or brazen. The f+-%#@g word in this context doesnโt mean the same as what youโre thinking.
Put the smelling salts away.

People who resort to that sort of language probably have a limited vocabulary.

When a good friend of mine died, her best friend was asked out by her widower - at her funeral..!! ๐ฑ
She slapped his face...and while that isn't necessarily the correct response, I was with her all the way..! ๐๐ก
Agree

What was auntie's response?
FO, hopefully
๐๐๐๐ brilliant answer.
Am I being naive in thinking in this context it just means close friend
Mumnet where they are much less coy about using "language".
I agree with whomever posted about using the initials for people or things so much.
I finally found the acronym list ~~
On this thread I see the initials MN and since it's not on the list I have no idea what it refers to~~~
