Meaning
Eyes glancing sideways under heavy lids and a small frown: the classic side-eye. It signals annoyance, boredom, mild jealousy or plain disapproval, a sigh in emoji form.
It is common for petty complaints and playful sulking: “You went to the new bakery without me 😒” Between friends the pout often reads as mock outrage. Without that friendly setting it is much colder, and a lone 😒 reply can feel like you are judging the other person, so use it sparingly in serious conversations.
