From a Guy — From your crush
What does 🎷 mean from a guy you like?
If your crush sends this, he's probably trying to project a 'smooth operator' image or acknowledging your 'rizz.' It's a low-key flirt, a playful way to say he's feeling the chemistry or appreciates something you said that was slick. He wants you to think he's cool, even if he's using it ironically.

Unless it's on a dedicated music or meme page, it might feel a bit random or even slightly creepy, like they're trying too hard to impress. Probably an 'ick' moment.
