Meaning and Interpretation

🫦 Yo, this emoji is basically saying 'I'm feeling some type of way' - could be flirty, could be nervous, could be straight up thirsty. When someone sends this, they're either trying to be seductive as hell or they're awkwardly crushing hard. Like when your crush texts you and you don't know how to act, or when you're watching something and your inner thoughts are getting way too spicy for public consumption. It's that 'well damn' moment where you gotta bite your lip to keep yourself together. Peak 'down bad' energy.
