Bold, forward (12)
I believe the answer is:
presumptuous
This clue is a double definition.
'bold' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'forward' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)
(Other definitions for presumptuous that I've seen before include "Impertinently bold" , "Assuming too much" , "Impertinent" , "Bold - forward" .)
