Meaning and Interpretation
❤️🩹 This little guy is basically saying 'I'm a mess, but I'm working on it.' It's not the total devastation of a 💔, it's more like 'Ouch, that hurt, but I put a band-aid on it.' Use it when you're sharing your health struggles, admitting you messed up and are trying to fix it, or when your heart is bruised but you're slowly moving on. It's the emoji version of saying 'I'm not okay, but I will be.'
