Ambiguity in love & hearts emoji
No universal chart assigns one mandatory meaning to every heart color. Shared conventions exist inside communities, but color alone is weak evidence of intent.
Use the official name and visible design as evidence, but not as proof of a sender’s intent. Ask for clarification when the message affects consent, safety, work, money, health, or a relationship.
