From a Guy — From a guy friend
What does 🦋 mean from a guy friend?
From a bro, it's usually either a joke, or he's genuinely trying to be supportive in a 'soft boy' way for your glow-up. Like, 'bro, your new setup is giving 🦋.' Or it could be a very rare instance of him being genuinely vulnerable about feeling nervous for something, but that's a deep friend zone context.

This is a pretty big signal from a guy, honestly. He's either super into the 'soft boy' aesthetic and genuinely uses it to express nervous excitement around you, or he's deliberately sending it to convey that 'butterflies in my stomach' feeling. It's a green flag, suggesting he's feeling a connection and is open about it. He's probably thinking about you a lot and feeling the feels.
