Heavy minus sign is something we happen to use often when we lack something or when we decide to get rid of something for good. So maybe that new dress you bought and decided you should probably give it away as it makes you look fat, or perhaps the last time you decided to go out with your friend and that common friend you have couldn’t come with you, this emoji can depict most of these things as after all it does represent the lack of something, and if you as us, that can be good some of the times.
