🤔 From a Friend

In general, you're likely to see it used when someone is "unsure" about something, no matter what that thing may be. Maybe a friend needs some extra time when you've asked them where they want to go for lunch, or is feeling philosophical after a slightly deeper question. Or, maybe you've just told them about something your crush did, and they're passive-aggressively letting you know that they're acting super suspicious.

If you're being dishonest with them, this can be a clear sign that they're on to you!
