By The Cringe team

Short answer: ๐Ÿ˜˜ is the face blowing a kiss. It can mean "love you", "kisses, bye" or a flirty "you're cute". From a crush, it is usually a warm and flirty sign, but some people send ๐Ÿ˜˜ to everyone, so check how they use it with others.

What does ๐Ÿ˜˜ mean?

The official name is Face Blowing a Kiss. It is a winking face with lips in a kiss and a small red heart flying out. There are other kiss emojis like ๐Ÿ˜— and ๐Ÿ˜š, but ๐Ÿ˜˜ is the one with the heart, so it feels the most loving.

Common uses:

  • Saying bye: "talk tomorrow ๐Ÿ˜˜"
  • Thanks with love: "you're the best ๐Ÿ˜˜"
  • Flirting: "can't wait to see you ๐Ÿ˜˜"
  • Family: moms and grandmas love this one

What does ๐Ÿ˜˜ mean from a guy?

From a guy, ๐Ÿ˜˜ is often a clear flirty move, because many guys don't send kisses to their friends. If he sends it at the end of a good night text or after a compliment, he is showing affection.

Some guys send kisses fast and easily, though. If the ๐Ÿ˜˜ comes very early, very often, with big words but no real plans, read about love bombing texts.

What does ๐Ÿ˜˜ mean from a girl?

From a girl, ๐Ÿ˜˜ can be flirty, but it can also be friendly. Many girls send ๐Ÿ˜˜ to best friends, sisters and mom.

It feels more special when she sends it only to you, or when it comes with "miss you" or "can't wait to see you". If she sends it after a nice date, that is a good sign she had fun.

Is ๐Ÿ˜˜ a good sign?

Usually yes. Here is how to read it:

  • "Good night ๐Ÿ˜˜": sweet and close.
  • ๐Ÿ˜˜โค๏ธ or ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜˜: more affection, often from a partner or someone very into you.
  • "Thanks babe ๐Ÿ˜˜": can be just friendly, the way best friends talk.
  • Sarcastic ๐Ÿ˜˜: "Good luck with that ๐Ÿ˜˜" after an argument can mean "bye, I'm done".

Older people, and people from cultures where friends greet each other with a kiss on the cheek, often use ๐Ÿ˜˜ casually with everyone. Many Gen Z users save it for close friends and partners, or use it as a joke.

How to reply to ๐Ÿ˜˜

  • Flirty: "Only one? ๐Ÿ˜"
  • Flirty: "Save the real one for when I see you"
  • Sweet: "๐Ÿ˜˜ back at you"
  • Sweet: "Good night, sleep well โค๏ธ"
  • Playful: "Kisses already? Buy me dinner first ๐Ÿ˜‚"
  • Playful: "Kiss received and saved"
  • Not interested: "Haha thanks, good night!"
  • Not interested: "Thanks! Talk soon"
