What does ๐ mean from a guy friend?
Your bro sending ๐ is the classic 'what up, dude?' or an encouraging 'let's go' for whatever you guys have planned. It's usually a no-frills, direct communication to get things moving or just check in with the squad.

It's a pretty neutral opening, letting you decide how much energy to put into the response, so it could be friendly or a low-key flirt, depending on his usual communication style and past interactions.
