From a Guy — From a guy stranger
What does 🌵 mean from a guy you don't know?
Unknown sender with 🌵 could be anything. If it's on a dating app, he's probably trying to be 'mysterious' or convey a 'rugged' vibe, which is a bit played out. If it's a random DM, treat it as sus until proven otherwise. The meaning is too ambiguous from a stranger to be automatically positive.

If a guy you're crushing on sends 🌵, he might be trying to project a cool, 'I don't care that much' persona, which is peak Gen Z defense mechanism. Alternatively, he could be subtly signaling his own resilience or that he's a bit emotionally guarded, or it could genuinely just be about a desert-related topic you were discussing. Analyze the rest of the convo, but don't expect deep vulnerability from this one.
