Valentine’s Day is really for everyone whether you are single or in a committed relationship. I know that VDay can be a downer for some people as it reminds them that they do not currently have a significant other. Well it is time to snap out of it because you much rather spend Valentine’s Day with your girlfriends than some loser guy from Tinder. Have you ever heard of Galentine’s Day? Well it is Valentine’s Day but with your gal pals… much more fun. So if you are feeling lonely on the 14th, call your single besties and have a Galentine’s Day date night with these 5 ideas.

Grab some popcorn, candy, a few bottles of champagne, and all of the chick flick movies your ex-boyfriend wouldn’t watch with you. Have a movie marathon night with your girlfriends! Trust me when I say you would much rather watch Ryan Gosling act like a bird than suffer through a terrible Tinder date.Instead of hosting a themed VDay dinner with hearts and flowers (yuck who needs that?), have brunch instead. You love brunch, I love brunch, we all love brunch, so why the heck not? Make pancakes and omelettes while sipping mimosas and wearing your PJ’s.

Ok hearts and flowers can still be included.

Because your cleansing mask scared the living day lights out of your ex-boyfriend. Invite your girlfriends over for a spa night equipped with facial masks, pedicures, makeovers, and green smoothies. Have a healthy night in because the best revenge is a hot body and smooth skin.

You do not spend hours pretending to be Beyoncé for no reason. Grab your besties and hit the dance floor. The best way to shake off your Valentine’s Day blues is literally shaking it off (cue T.Swift). After a fun night of dancing with your friends you will remember why you love being single in the first place.

In the words of Ramona Singer “it’s turtle time!.”  Set up a private party at a wine bar or hire a professional to come to your house for a wine tasting event. Drink with your girlfriends while being educated on wine pairings with different foods, yum!
