      It's more common for people to mix it up in our extremely online era than it used to be but there are still certain things that make it obvious you didn't do the research That Black Mirror episode taking place in the US that makes a big thing of signing your text "x" to flirt https://twitter.com/GennHutchison/status/1262456899611418631 …

      I do not flirt with British people in a regular basis so I didn't know the "x" or "xx" thing until this episode, it was a gap in my knowledge And then when I looked it up and saw other people reacted similarly I got peeved

      (I mean I'm not crazy right I've literally never seen the "See you soon! x" thing with the "x" being a kiss in a US context, it looks like a weird typo)

          It's not just for flirting, it's very multipurpose in the UK! It can be totally platonic affection too. (I was very confused about it at first when I studied abroad.)

          I think my first memory of using x to mean kiss is writing Christmas cards to my grandparents when I was little. It's just how you sign off messages to loved ones, "lots of love xxxx"

          I used to text “xoxo” to my spouse when we were dating, which he found so idiosyncratic he nicknamed me after it (“zoh zoh”) I got it from my grandmother, who always put it at the end of letters and was EXTREMELY old school New England—my mother grew up calling her “Mummy”

          Yes, xoxoxo is absolutely something i learned from my grandmothers - but it was never just x or multiple x’s! But I see it in Brits’ tweets all the time. This is why I find a Britpicker if I’m writing fanfic!

          Replying to @arthur_affect

          I mean, my Grandma in the US finished letters with XXX OOO or some variant for hugs and kisses, but I've never encountered a single x as the obviously related thing.

          Xs were kisses and Os were hugs, it’s considered kind of antique here
