Cuffing season begins in October and lasts until March, although Merriam-Webster says most people consider the season to culminate with Valentine's Day in February: "According to most lifestyle writers, it’s the time of the year when the weather starts to turn cold and single people begin the active search for romantic partners in the hope of having someone with whom to ride out the colder, snowier, bleaker months." "Cuffing" is supposed to refer to "handcuffs," or the idea of people being tied to one another.
