From a Guy
What does ๐ฃ mean from a guy?
When a guy sends ๐ฃ, it often comes with a layer of ironic self-deprecation, or a surprisingly sincere attempt at expressing vulnerability. He might be leaning into a 'soft boy' aesthetic or just admitting he's new to something and a bit out of his depth. It's less common for them to send it directly *to* you as a romantic compliment than a girl might, unless itโs very close.
More specific meanings
๐ From your crush

It could be a subtle way of expressing he's a bit nervous or 'new' to this romantic pursuit with you, or that he finds something about you endearingly innocent. It's a low-key flirt, often trying to seem approachable.
