What 😑 means from a girl or a guy

Who sent the expressionless face and what came before it change the reading more than the emoji itself does.

From a girl
When a girl sends you 😑, it usually means she’s genuinely not impressed. She might think something is silly, pointless, or just plain bad. Don’t take it personally; it’s often just a reaction to the situation.
From a guy
If a guy sends you 😑, he’s probably trying to appear calm and in control. He could be feeling awkward, bored, or just doesn’t want to get involved in a drama. It’s similar to a girl’s reaction – it's about not showing emotion.
How to reply
If someone sends you 😑, you could reply with: “Yeah, it’s pretty bad.” or “Totally.” or “I agree.” or “Don’t worry about it.” (followed by a 👍 emoji).

09 — Apps

What 😑 means on TikTok, WhatsApp and Discord

The character is the same everywhere, but the artwork and the reading of it change from app to app.

TikTok & Instagram
Basically, it means "I’m not feeling it." It’s a way to show you’re not amused or excited about something. In comments and captions it is read the same way — the tone comes from what it sits next to.
WhatsApp
WhatsApp draws 😑 with Apple-style artwork on every phone, so it looks identical for both sides. A message with only 😑 in it is shown enlarged.
Discord & Slack
Both accept the shortcode :expressionless:. Discord renders Twemoji, so 😑 looks different there than on your phone.
Outlook & email
Outlook has no emoji picker on desktop — press Win + . or Control + Command + Space inside the message body, or paste 😑 from the copy button above.
