What 🤮 means
🤮 is stronger than 🤢. Where 🤢 says I feel a bit queasy, 🤮 says this is too much. Most use is exaggerated and playful: reacting to bad food, an ugly outfit, a cheesy pickup line, or a couple being overly sweet in public. It can also be harsh when aimed at someone's photo or opinion, so the tone depends on who sends it. People also use it honestly when they are sick or after too much alcohol.
From a girl or a guy
It is not a romantic signal. If you sent something cheesy and got 🤮, it is usually teasing, and a laugh emoji with it means they are joking.
Sarcastic use
Friends send it to mock couple posts or overly sweet messages, meaning that is too cute to handle.
In texting
It often stands for that is so cringe or ew, no thanks. Alone it reads as a strong dislike.
