What does 🥹 mean from a guy you don't know?
A stranger sending this could be a number of things. If it's a guy complimenting your content, it's usually a softer way of expressing 'I like this' or 'you're cute' without being overtly flirty, which can be seen as less aggressive. If it's in a more random context, it might be an attempt to appear disarming. Always evaluate the profile and overall message for red flags.
