I’m sitting in quarantine, which by misunderstanding everyone calls a vacation, and I’m already climbing the wall from idleness and boredom.
One salvation is communication with friends and a girl who is also in self-isolation at home. Such love at a distance, like in the Middle Ages, damn it. Pure Montagues and Capulets, only the virus, not family problems, prevents them from seeing each other.
And then at the next moment I wanted to send her a heart in iMessage, and I was confused: did you notice that there are as many as TEN hearts in the emoji of different colors?
Okay, everything is clear with red and broken red, but why the others? In what cases should they be used?
Since I have plenty of time, I conducted an investigation and studied the issue. Now I want to tell you so that you know. So:
What does green mean?
Receiving a green heart means an official proposal to date. And this is where emoticons of different colors often help. If you were previously interested in dating and communication, then receiving a green heart in a correspondence on VK is an invitation to a date with all the ensuing steps. All that remains is to think about the proposal, agree or refuse, giving reasons for your answer if possible, so that in case of refusal you do not offend your interlocutor.

Why do VK users put a black heart in their status?

Black color in any expressions and symbols means predominantly everything negative. For example, black roses are a favorite type of goths and vampires.

Returning to the status of VK, we can say that most often users use a black heart to express the gloom of their mood. Disappointment in life, as well as in love and friendship. This is confirmed by some statuses with such hearts and text statements.
People with black hearts are no longer happy with everyday life. Their thoughts are pessimistic.
Also, such signs often symbolize grief over the loss of a loved one. Your friend's close relative or friend may have died. The best way to find out the meaning of his expression is to ask him himself. This can be done at the meeting. But you shouldn’t write to him right away. There is a possibility of encountering rudeness on his part. Wait, maybe he will change his status soon. And with it the mood.
