The text message X is a versatile little shorthand that can change meaning based on how it’s used. In fact, who is using it can mean just as much as how it’s used! If it all seems overwhelming at first, don’t worry. We’ll break this down for you so that you figure out precisely how to respond appropriately. Read on to learn everything you need to know about what X means over text.
Things You Should Know
- An X at the end of a text message represents a kiss.
- XOXO means hugs and kisses, while multiple Xs are a sign that someone really wants to smooch.
- While X can be used flirtatiously, X may simply be used in a warm, non-romantic way, too.
- In fringe scenarios, X can be used as a variable, as a stand-in for “ex,” or to indicate something is only for adults.
