What Does F2F Mean in a Text?
The Growing Glossary of Dating Slang
If you're new to online dating, then I'm afraid there is whole new language with well over 250 terms for you to learn.Particularly since the rise of the iKids, people have been far more open about their sexual preferences and desires, and this has generated a long glossary of new dating terms. Many sexual preferences are still abbreviated on dating sites, presumably with the idea that those who do not understand the term do not need to know it. That thinking does not help newcomers though. Here is the term you're looking for:
F2F means "Face to Face."

An Academic Look at F2F
F2F is classified by our team as an "internet slang term" as opposed to an initialism abbreviation or an acronym. Initially, "internet slang terms" were introduced for brevity, but, particularly with the advent of predictive texting and on-screen keyboards, they are now mostly employed for fun. "Slang terms" differ from icons because they are not pictorial representations. F2F can be both an adjective, as in "the two men had a face-to-face conversation" or as an adverb, if referring to direct confrontation (e.g., "she came face-to-face with her attacker)."What Did We Say before Texting and Social Media?
