cuffed
Struck or bound
Cuffed describes something fitted with a cuff—a band or fold at the end of a sleeve or pant leg: cuffed trousers, cuffed sleeves.
It also means restrained with handcuffs: The suspect was cuffed and taken into custody.
In slang, cuffed means in a committed relationship, especially during colder months when people seek companionship: He got cuffed up right before winter.
