From a Guy — From your crush
What does 🫄 mean from a guy you like?
If your male crush sends this, he's likely trying to show off his playful, self-deprecating side. He's probably jesting about a 'food baby' or being 'pregnant' with a new idea or project, trying to get a laugh and establish a chill, funny connection. It’s a good sign he’s comfortable being silly around you and wants to share a laugh.
