What Does the 🙈 Emoji Mean?

Ever heard the phrase "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil?"

If not, all you need to know is that it essentially references a sense of polite or willful ignorance (AKA you can't talk about the drama if you never saw the drama happen to begin with). Even if you haven't heard the phrase before, there's one emoji that certainly has: 🙈.

🙈 From Your Crush

Whether from a guy or a girl, the 🙈 might follow anything from an admission that they like you to a statement that they think you're cute or asking you out on a date. The implication? That now that they've said what they really feel, they're afraid to look at your response. If you like them back, let them know it with a friendly emoji of your own to put them at ease!
