Galentines is just like Valentines, although it is for the ladies who aren’t in a relationship and who have a group of friends who they love to spend time with. It’s typically celebrated as a party or small get together. Galentines became a thing on February 11, 2010 when Leslie Nope and Amy Poehler introduced it to the world on the popular TV show called Parks and Recreation. Since that day it has just embedded itself in Pop Culture.
Amylei Koopen stated that “Galentine’s day is a cute holiday and I look forward to spending time with friends and making memories with them.”
Although Galentines came to be on February 11, 2010 it is typically celebrated February 13th, the day before Valentine’s day. It’s a time for women to come together and appreciate the bonds they share with their closest friends. Whether it’s through brunches, gift exchanges, or simply spending quality time together, Galentine’s day is all about celebrating the love and support that friends provide. It encourages women to cherish their friendships and recognize the important role they play in each other’s lives. It’s a joyful occasion that highlights the strength and joy found in female camaraderie.
Janette Valencia stated that “Galentine’s day is such a beautiful way to honor and celebrate friendships.”
Asking someone to be your Galentine can be a special moment in your friendship. You can start by telling them how much you value their loyalty and how they’ve stuck by your side. You can simply start by mentioning Galentine’s day and how it’s coming by fast and then suggest that you guys should celebrate it together and how it could be such a fun day. If you wanna make it more personal you can plan a special day with your favorite things and hobbies to do together, such as spa days, shopping sprees, dinner, and maybe even something crafty that has souvenirs for you guys to have as keepsakes in the friendship. The most important thing is making memories that you’ll keep with you for the rest of your life.
