A heart; a symbol of one's affection towards another.

An exaggerated version of the less than three emoticon (heart, love, or luv) used in online forums and chatrooms. Used to indicate extremely strong love or attraction; akin to the multiple hearts drawn over/around a lovestruck cartoon character.

If read aloud, this symbol is best pronounced "lotsa-hearts" or "loooove": the number of threes may vary, sometimes growing too long for a literal mathematical reading.
