From a Guy
What does 🔽 mean from a guy?
When he sends this, it's usually pretty direct, like "look at the pic below" or "check out the next message." It can also be used for a reveal, especially if he's sharing something funny or a reaction to something happening. It's rarely deeply layered unless the context surrounding it makes it so.

💕 From your crush
