Valentine’s Day is Friday, Feb. 14 – the day for hearts and flowers, candy hearts, love notes, date nights with slow dancing and other romantic gestures.
And arguably the most dreaded day of the year if you are a single female.
But an idea that began in the realm of television has become reality, an accepted alternative to Valentine’s Day that grows each year: Galentine’s Day, a celebration of female friendships on Feb. 13.
Galentine’s Day is the day to gather your gal pals and celebrate your friendships, recognize their importance in your lives and strengthen those bonds.
Ironically, Galentine’s Day was the idea of a guy.
