   Encourage someone to message you. Maybe it’s been a week since you hit up your friend, or you’re looking to reconnect with someone you haven’t chatted with a while. “TTM” is a cool, snappy way to get your message across.

   • “Long time no see. TTM!”
   • “It’s been awhile. TTM!”
   • “How’ve you been? TTM!”

   Lend someone a listening ear. It’s tough to figure out the right thing to say when a friend or loved one is going through a rough time. Remind them that you’re there for them with a quick “TTM,” and that you’re happy to listen if they need to vent.

   • “Sounds like you had a rough day. You can always TTM if you want.”
   • “I can’t begin to imagine what you’re going through, but please know that I’m here. Feel free to TTM anytime.”

   Invite a friend to spill all the exciting details. Did your roommate just get back from an awesome vacation? Did your friend get front-row seats to a concert? Encourage them to share every last detail of their adventure with a quick “TTM!”

   • “OMG, I saw the pics of the party on your Instagram story last night. TTM!”
   • “Was that Troy in your last Snap, or am I just seeing things? TTM!”

   Shoot a reply back if you feel like it. Someone's asking you to talk to them, so you might as well send a response if you're in the mood! Feel free to say something like:

   • "Hey there! How's it going?"
   • "I really appreciate your support. You’re a really good friend!”
   • "Okay, okay! I’ll tell you everything. It’s a pretty crazy story though!”

   Ignore the message if you'd rather not answer. "TTM" is a pretty lazy way to start up a conversation, and it doesn't give you very much to work with. If the person really wants to talk with you, they can send a more specific, personalized message.
