And the world, I’ll turn it inside out. ” If you were using “Hello,” you’d start out by saying, “Hello, it’s me. ” After your friend responds, send them, “I was wondering if after all these years you’d like to meet. ”

“This one means that I like you, but only as a friend. ” “You don’t know that emoji? It means that I’m having a super fun conversation with you. ” “That’s my favorite emoji! It means, ‘That’s cool, bro. ’” Pick random emojis like 🗿, 💾, ➰, 🔳, or 🧱.
