What ღ means
It is a Georgian consonant letter.
In Latin letters, it is written gh; that spelling does not explain its sound.
Why did someone send me ღ?
A lone ღ needs context.
As of 2026, some online text art borrows its heartlike shape as an affection mark. Paired with <3, that reading is clearer; inside Georgian words, it is spelling.
Standard in Georgian writing; a lone mark needs context.
A lone ღ is not a reliable love message.

Questions people ask
1Why does ღ show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
