2Sense Shortie: Valentines or Galentines
Do you have any plans for this upcoming Valentines Day? These days having a significant other is not a big deal. Do you remember the days of scrambling to find a date at lease 3 weeks before the big day? Now it seems as though lots of women have come up with the idea of Galentine's Day. This surely makes it a lot easier to enjoy the holiday without the pressure of having a meaningless relationship.
So what is Galentine's Day you ask?! Well, its the Valentines day holiday spent with your friends instead of someone whom you are in a romantic relationship with. Even if you have a relationship, you can celebrate Galentine's as well. Many people use this time to celebrate and love on each other. It's a reminder that you are loved regardless of the nature of the relationship.
Different things to do on Galentine's Day:
Binge watching movies or shows. Make it a Rom-Com night and include some of your favorite movies or shows like. Ones that make you laugh and cry. I mean who doesn't love Girls Trip or The Notebook.
Have a Wine-n-Chocolate Bar. This sounds like the perfect combination for me. I love wine and I love chocolate. Make some cookies or buy each other boxes of chocolate just to show each other love.
Paint and Sip. Painting is so much fun and is also therapeutic. Add in some wine and boom, you have a night full of laughter and relaxation. No judgements will be made on the type of artist you are because I mean perfection is definitely not a requirement.
A Getaway or Slumber party.....or both! Plan a nice getaway to like a bed and breakfast or your favorite resort. Trying to be budget conscious?! Try booking a fancy hotel, right in your own city and turning it into an adult slumber party. Maybe even utilize the spa within the hotel or resort. Those are always fun.
Pole Dancing Class. This sexy dance class is a sure confidence booster. You and your friends will learn some new dance moves and also unlock a new found sexy you didn't even know you had....or maybe you did ;).
Whether you are celebrating Valentines Day or Galentine's day, make sure to enjoy those memorable moments with the ones you love. Be in the moment and not make it about what pictures you can take for social media. Make it a day of love for you and your friends/lovers but remember to make it a day to start loving on yourself a little bit more.
