Let’s say you have been chatting with someone for a week or two over Snapchat, or text. None of you have seen each other and in one random evening, out of nowhere, they drop a “WYLL” in the chat. This is a pretty uncommon abbreviation that you might not be familiar with. So, keep reading if you want to know what is the meaning of WYLL and how you can use it on Snapchat, TikTok, and other platforms.
Meaning of “WYLL”
WYLL stands for “What You Look Like”. It’s used when two people who are chatting with each other, haven’t met face to face, and are curious about the other person’s physical appearance. So texting a “WYLL” is a way to request a photo or Snap of the person on the other side. But some people might also use it to refer to personality or nature.
Usually, people with a shy nature, don’t prefer to share their appearance on social media, unless they become comfortable with the person. That is why this question could pop up, and you can respond with a video on TikTok, or a Snap on Snapchat if you are worried about your privacy.
Using “WYLL” on TikTok, Snapchat and Text
To get a better idea of how to use this acronym in everyday conversation, we have mentioned a few examples for you. Take a look.
- “It’s been a while since we have been talking, wyll in real life?”
- “You have a great personality. WYLL? Send a Snap.”
- “WYLL? I couldn’t find any photos of you on your TikTok.”
- “After months of texting, I’m curious wyll.”
- “I’ve told you a lot about me, so wyll?”
How to Reply to WYLL
If someone asks you a “WYLL” or what you look like, then they expect you to reply with your photo. So you can click a selfie or pick one from your gallery and send it to them. However, it all entirely depends on how comfortable you are with them. You can also share your Instagram account link where your photo is visible if you are feeling too lazy to click a photo.
Let’s say you don’t find it safe to share your pic with them, then just let them know you are not comfortable sharing your photo. Or if you are on Snapchat, Facebook, or WhatsApp then an avatar of yourself to help them get a little idea about your physical attributes.
That’s pretty much it for this guide. Given we are so hooked to our phones these days, making friends online has become quite frequent. So you may come across strangers who turn into good friends and ask WYLL later down the line, and this time, you’ll know what to do.
