What π° means
The tone is tense but usually not tragic. People send π° when they are stressed, worried about a result, or caught in an awkward moment and want to say "yikes". It is stronger than π, which is plain worry, and softer than π±, which is full shock or horror. The sweat drop adds a sense of pressure or panic, so it often fits time stress such as running late or waiting for news. Students use it a lot before exams and results, and fans use it during close matches, for example a tight last over in cricket. It can also be a light, joking way to admit you are nervous.
In texting
It usually means the sender is nervous or under pressure. A reply that reassures them or asks what is wrong fits well.
From a girl or a guy
It is not usually a romantic signal. It more likely means they feel nervous, shy or worried, though in a crush chat it can show they are nervous about how you will react.
At work
It is often used to signal deadline stress or worry about a mistake. It reads as honest but a little informal.
