From a Guy
What does ๐ mean from a guy?
From a guy, this emoji is almost always pretty literal โ he's likely showing off a new shirt, asking if a particular t-shirt looks good on him, or just indicating he's dressed super casually for something. It's not usually loaded with deep meaning or ironic layers unless he's deliberately trying to be self-deprecating about his 'basic' style. Most bros are pretty straightforward with this one.
