The symbol ";-)" is also known as the "wink smiley". It can be used in a wide variety of situations.
The 😉 symbol represents a face with a winking eye. The popular smiley is often used in connection with chats and messenger services at the Flirt used. For example, it can underline a compliment (or an invitation to fuck).
It also lends itself to providing a little room for interpretation or punctuating a joke. In short: 😉 can be used in connection with many statements.
However, the danger - as with other smilies - is to use the faces TOO often. If you really only ever send a wink smiley in response to jokes and innuendos, you will not come across as quick-witted, but quickly boring.
This makes it all the more important to use the popular 😉 with care and to consider how the virtual counterpart might interpret the winking face.
By the way: the mix of semicolon, hyphen and parenthesis is - along with the classic smiley - one of the oldest symbols of its kind. Even "back then" in the days of text messaging, when only a few characters could be sent, many people used the wink to get started in a flirt.
Because: with this loving face, the sender can do little wrong. With the right context and text, the basis for many sexy real dates can be created.
However, if you are looking for a little more variety in the area of flirty faces, you should take a look at the large selection that is now available. From sticking out tongues to smilies with sunglasses to red roses, everything is represented here. Accordingly, it is no longer necessary to assemble the desired face "by hand".
