@PrasunKar_ I love this phrase!! This reminds me of the saying, "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together." #TEARtalk

@TearYouthTO A1: It's okay to not have every single thing planned out, there is beauty in the unknown and going with the flow. #TEARtalk

@TearYouthTO A2: It might look like keeping your profile private and not accepting friend requests from certain people #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@TearYouthTO A4: Be easy on yourself - breakups are tough so don’t feel pressured to put on a timeline on your grieving process, it’s not linear. Be with people who make you feel good and remind you that everything will be okay! ❤️ #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@TearYouthTO A3: Check in with them often to see how they’re doing - it means a lot. Be an active listener so don’t give advice unless they ask for it and validate their feelings when they choose to share. #TEARtalk

@plainwildcatfan Working towards the person you want to become - I love this!! 💚 #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@TearYouthTO A2: Give yourself time to process all your emotions and know that healing is not linear. Surround yourself with friends and family. Vent and talk to them to help with the grieving process - saying things out loud makes a huge difference #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@TearYouthTO A1: It allows us to reflect and learn more about ourselves - what we like and don’t like, what we’re looking for in a relationship, what coping strategies works for us etc. #TEARtalk

@TearYouthTO A1: On the other hand, unhealthy masculinity maintains and reproduces gender norms such as men shouldn’t express their emotions and they must be “tough” #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@TearYouthTO A1: Healthy masculinity means understanding that masculinity is not static and is fluid - it varies from person to person. It is also important to acknowledge that masculinity is a social construct and it is mainly gender norms and stereotypes. #TEARtalk

@TearYouthTO A2: If it’s too good to be true, it most likely is! Always your trust your gut feelings #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@TearYouthTO A3: Women and girls are most often victims of sexual violence and human trafficking. #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@TearYouthTO A1: A day to celebrate all the incredible women in your life while acknowledging the struggles and barriers that they face in aspects of life #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@TearYouthTO A4: This is a conversation we should be having today and everyday so talk about it with your friends and loved ones regularly! #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@TearYouthTO Q3: By making sure that you think before you post/send any message! Ask yourself “would I say this in person, will it hurt anyone and is this benefitting anyone?” before posting/sending. #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@TearYouthTO A2: Some common examples of cyberbulying include catfishing and creating/spreading gossip online. Victims of cyberbullying often experience increased feelings of fear and isolation and lower self esteem #TEARtalk

[Maggie To @tomaggiee]

@JahssmeG Exactly! It comes in so many forms and that is what makes HT such a complicated issue #TEARtalk
