    It's impossible to undestand without context.
    Could be 'warm greetings from hippie/youth subculture' or 'flirting teasing'.

    It's really mix of platonic and romantic messages and could be understood in both ways.
    So, it is not 100% definite.
    (and, by the way, beware of Is it normal for Russian brother and sister to french kiss?)
    Thanks for the translation. Glad to hear that I am not the only one stuck between the interpretation. Lol, the two people are not siblings here but I suppose if in Russian culture, siblings can kiss like that, then it would not be a stretch for two unrelated people to have a romantic relationship but still call each other brothers or sisters.

    The message is between two 16 year old school fellows if that helps.
