[…] Adobe reported a top three and a bottom three emoji for flirting. The survey found that Face Blowing a Kiss, Smiling Face with Hearts, and Smiling Face with Heart-Eyes would make someone appear more likable while Pile of Poo, Angry Face, and the less-than-suggestive Eggplant would make someone appear less likable. This is noteworthy since 72% of users will send an emoji in a conversation with someone they are interested in or flirting with — just steer clear of the eggplant. Interestingly, Adobe found significant differences in how males and females use emojis. 76% of males reported using emoji more during flirting as opposed to the 68% of females that claimed the same, while 27% of men claimed to have ended a relationship with an emoji compared to 15% of women.
