From a Guy — From a guy stranger
What does 😫 mean from a guy you don't know?
Similar to a girl, from a stranger, it's a mixed bag. Could be a misdirected message, or someone trying to slide into your DMs with a 'relatable' opening that often falls flat. 'Your feed is too good 😫' is often trying to be flirty but can come off as desperate or just confusing. Trust your gut on this one – if it feels off, it probably is.
