The Hottest Flirty Emojis To Send To Your Perfect Match

Dating online can be tricky. How do you get your point across without the other person misinterpreting it? And how the hell do you flirt without seeming weird? One way to do it is with flirty emojis.

The Hottest Flirty Emojis To Send To Your Perfect Match

What are flirty emojis? 

Emojis are digital icons that we use in our texts to add emotion to and set the tone for the conversation. Flirty emojis are the selected few of those digital images that help us spice up the chat and indicate to our crush that we’re into them.

Why use flirty emojis when dating

You don’t have to use flirty emojis, or any emojis for that matter. But why not? They help the other person understand what you mean better, they’re fun, and they can be used instead of texts completely. Moreover, sending a cheeky emoji is much better than going for the old-as-the-world pick-up lines. If you’re texting back and forth a lot, this is a nice way to change things up. 

Also, flirting over text and using different flirty emoji combos is fantastic because the other person can’t see you when you send them a message, so you can be bolder with the things you say. This is great for those who are normally risk averse and would never be able to be forward in a face-to-face conversation. In text, even if your advances aren’t received that well, you’re safe in a different location, and you won’t have to deal with real-time embarrassment while standing in front of them.

Am I too old to send flirty emojis to my matches? 

Enough with this ageism! Anyone can and should be using emojis. You’re not less smart or cool if you do. Those icons are designed as tools that add fun and emotion to the conversation. If you’re more conservative with the way you communicate, try safer emoji options, and leave emojis like eggplant for when you’re ready to loosen up more. 

The wink emoji 😉

Let’s start off with a modest classic. Honestly, the Once team cannot think of a situation where you’re flirting and the wink emoji looks out of place. It’s funky, it’s light-hearted, and it’s a fool-proof way to signal your mood to your partner. 

The devil-smiley face 😈

This is a slightly more “aggressive” alternative to the wink emoji. If the wink emoji can still be seen as simply friendly, the devil-smiley is a statement – I am flirting with you, and you can’t ignore it. That’s a good emoji for both sexual and more innocent flirting. Whatever you add this to will become slightly naughtier. Use this emoji when you’re just starting to chat with someone, or when your flirting is in full swing. 

The hot emoji 🔥

An obvious response for when someone sends you a provocative photo, text, a voice message, or a video. Everyone needs a little confidence boost, especially when they’re sending risky messages and images. Also a good addition to any spicy compliment you give to the other person. 

The smirk emoji 😏

This emoji can be cocky or flirty, it’s up to you to decide. Or don’t decide! Add this emoji to chats where you’re joking around about which one of you is cooler and can beat the other one in a game, sport, or anything else. It’s also a smart choice if you need to test the waters and see if you’re on the same flirting page with your crush. 

The eggplant emoji 🍆

This wouldn’t be a flirty emoji guide without this guy. Everyone knows the eggplant emoji and its meaning. It’s truly amazing how this kind of boring vegetable has become an international symbol for sexy time. Even if you personally think it’s tacky, it can still be used as a joke or in a sexting setting to get your point across. 

The sweat drops emoji 💦

If you’re ready to flirt aggressively, then use the eggplant and sweat drops emoji combination, and don’t look back. Just be extra careful here, there is no way to spin it once you send them. The recipient will get your message loud and clear, so make sure you guys are equally open to dirty flirting, and you won’t jeopardize your chances by being too forward too soon.

The peach emoji 🍑

This is a case of another unsuspecting food item turning into a symbol of sexual revolution. The peach has, somewhat unsurprisingly, become a symbol for a cute booty. Use it with caution, just like you would use an eggplant or the sweat drops emoji. 

The lips emojis 👄💋

Send the naughty lips or a lipstick kiss emoji to someone to indicate you’re lowkey (or maybe highkey?) horny. It’s hot, it’s a little bit mysterious, and it’s charming all at the same time. 

The tongue emoji 👅

Make it playful, make it sexy, make it obscene. The sticking-out tongue emoji is multifaceted, but it’s flirtatious 100% of the time. 

The ghost emoji 👻

The ghost emoji is universal. You can send it to friends, family members, and lovers. The context of your text will determine whether the ghost is supposed to be playful in a romantic or an innocent way. Use it if you’re suggesting plans that might imply the next stage of your relationship, such as sex, and you don’t want to be pushy. For example, if you’ve seen the person a few times already, and you’re about to invite them to your place for a Netflix-and-chill session. 

The faces-with-tongues emojis 😜😋😛😝

These are the go-to emojis for when you’re playfully teasing someone. They’re perfect for those first chats when you’re not yet ready to bombard them with eggplants and other produce. These cheeky emojis will light up the mood and will guarantee your crush will know that they shouldn’t take whatever you’re saying too seriously. 

Faces with hearts emojis 😍😘 

These are also playful and aren’t meant to really say “I love you” to someone. Instead, they demonstrate your affection and interest. It’s a perfect final response when you’re agreeing on a date or a great addition to your messages in all flirty situations. They’re also not sexualized, so it’s a safe bet if intimacy is not yet on your mindful dating bingo card. 

The strawberry emoji 🍓

Surprisingly, not many people use strawberry emojis for sexy talk. This might be a generational thing or a larger cultural shift, but the ultimate flirting berry is severely underutilized. If you’d like to set yourself apart, or simply have an appreciation for a classic, send it along with your flirtatious lines, and spice things up without being gross or creepy. 

The pepper emoji 🌶

Similarly to the strawberry emoji, the red hot chili pepper doesn’t seem to come up a lot when you think about flirty emojis. It is another classic though, and if you want to highlight how insanely hot your partner is, this is a good choice.

The pleading emoji 🙏🏻

Full disclosure: we probably wouldn’t have put this emoji on our list a couple of months ago. What’s changed now? Well, nothing, except the Challengers movie came out with Zendeya’s blond boyfriend serving the ultimate begging-for-it puppy eyes. Everything that touches this movie becomes hot and flirty, and so goes the pleading emoji. 

Heart emojis ❤️

Natural ly, heart emojis are perfect for flirting too. Here you have the widest range of options, feel free to copy and paste them and use them in your hot texts. 

  • Fire heart emoji (❤️‍🔥) for when you want to demonstrate your passion or very active agreement with something your crush sends in the dating chat. 
  • Broken heart emoji (💔) can be used in sad situations, like when you’re fighting or on the verge of a breakup, but it can also mean anything you like. Tell your partner you miss them and send the broken heart emoji. This can also be a response to someone’s expression of feelings towards you. 
  • Heart with an arrow (💘) is perfect for the first days and weeks of communication. If you’re feeling that you’re falling for the other person, but you’re adherent to slow dating principles, this emoji will save you from saying the big words but allow you to demonstrate your feelings. 
  • Heart emojis of different colors (🧡💛🖤💚💙💜) can be interpreted in thousands of different ways. These don’t have to imply love, unlike the classic red heart, and can be a cheeky and playful addition to your messages. Pick the color that aligns best with your vibe and send it to your favorite matches. 
  • Pink heart emojis selection (💗💓💞💕💗💝) – these are traditionally more romantic than flirty, but this doesn’t mean you can’t turn them into a flirtatious tool. 

Bottom line

Flirty emojis will add to your texting, flirting, and sexting experience. Don’t take them too seriously, and have fun with them. If you’ve never used emojis in flirting before, try it! The worst thing that can happen is you’ll feel weird or embarrass yourself a little bit. But guess what? You can also embarrass yourself in a thousand different ways. It’s a huge risk with dating in general, so don’t let the fear stop you from trying something new!
