What does 🙍♂️ mean from a guy you like?
He sent this and it has you wondering? He's probably trying to be charmingly vulnerable about a small problem, hoping you'll find it endearing. It's his way of saying 'I'm having a tiny struggle, come comfort me (or just acknowledge it so I can feel seen).' It's definitely a green light if you want to respond with playful sympathy.
