Heartache

Heartbroken and teary-eyed, engulfed in deep sorrow.

This emoji feels like the end of a long relationship where both people know it's over but neither wants to be the first to say goodbye

It’s like that moment when you see an old friend from high school and realize how much life has changed for both of you since then

On social media this emoji often shows up after someone posts about a failed project or getting passed over for a promotion everyone thought they deserved

At work it might represent the feeling of being stuck in a dead-end job with no hope of advancement and no one to talk to about it

To some kids it’s just the face you make when your favorite snack runs out on the last day of school before summer vacation
