“fr” Text Meaning

"For real" — emphasis of sincerity. "fr fr" doubles it.

When a guy uses "fr", read it at face value first. Most guys use slang exactly as the group chat uses it. The only real signal is whether he bothers texting you at all — effort is the male tell, not vocabulary.

From a girl, "fr" is also mostly literal — but girls more often use slang to set tone: playful, casual, unbothered. If her slang level with you is different from her formal style elsewhere, she is choosing the register she wants with you.

Use it back if it fits your style — shared slang builds rapport fast. If it does not fit your style, reply naturally; forced slang reads worse than none.
