Whether you’re single or in a relationship, you can still enjoy some pampering yourself on Valentine’s Day or even just celebrate Galantine’s Day with the girls. There are various options available, and it’s easy to find one that works for you.
The whole point is not to feel bad or guilty. Why should you feel bad for being single? Spoiler alert, you shouldn’t! You should be your own best friend, and you deserve to treat yourself that way too. So, here are some ideas on what you can do to treat yourself on Valentine’s or even Galantines Day!
Write a love letter to yourself
It may sound a little stranger, but this can be a great way to boost your self-esteem and feel less bad about being single (if this is something that bothers you). The most important relationship you have is with yourself. While a romantic partner is important, you must know what makes you happy. Writing a love letter to yourself can be a great way to remind yourself of the special qualities you have. It can also be a great way to get grounded on your own.
In the digital age, writing a love letter to yourself is becoming increasingly rare. So what should you do? It’s like giving yourself positive affirmations, but you’re writing them down more romantically. So, why not highlight the things that you love about yourself, and embrace who you are? Give yourself the gift of validating yourself. While having a partner can be nice, it’s even better to allow yourself to show love for yourself.
Treat yourself to products
Why not show yourself love and some self-care by treating yourself to something nice? This can be basically anything you want, from Valentine’s Day bouquets to a nice box of chocolates. You can even go as far as treating yourself to a wonderful experience, such as going on a trip or even staying the night at a hotel. If others are going to be pampered, why not just pamper yourself? You definitely deserve to treat yourself to something nice!
Get a spa treatment
If you’re looking to celebrate Galantine’s Day, consider a spa treatment for the occasion. These special days are great for celebrating friendships. Whether you’re celebrating with a group of girlfriends or yourself, a spa day can make the perfect gift. Spa packages usually offer a variety of services and include access to leisure facilities.
Some offer a full afternoon tea and champagne. Others provide a blowout, which can relieve follicles and flyaway hair. However, if you can’t afford to head to the local spa, that’s not a problem either! You can bring the right spa home. You can soak in the tub, steam up the shower, and enjoy all your beauty products.
Get a facial
Galentine’s Day is just around the corner, and this is a great time to pamper yourself and your loved ones with a special facial. Whether you’re at it solo or doing it with a friend, it’s a great way to unwind and just forget all about the fake commercial meaning behind Valentine’s Day. You could head to the spa or even get one of your favorite K-Beauty masks and treat yourself to that. Overall, it’s about looking good and feeling good.
Plan a girl’s night out
Why celebrate alone when you can have fun with friends? Galantines is all about celebrating and honoring female friendship. There are plenty of ways to plan a girl’s night out. The first step is to decide what kind of event you want to plan. Make sure it fits into your budget and is something you and your friends will enjoy.
A girl’s night out is the perfect opportunity to relax and unwind. You could spend it shopping, watching a movie, or doing a spa treatment. If you live near one of the many arcades in your area, consider going. Arcades are great places to play all types of games or see if there is a ladies’ night at one of the bars.
Low-cost activities
There are lots of low-cost activities to enjoy on Galentine’s Day. It’s a celebration of female friendship and a time for women to show their love and support to their best friends. While you could go out with your friends and have a lot of fun out, you can still opt for a cheaper option instead right at home.
There are plenty of low-cost activities you can try, or even try out some free things in the comfort of your home. This could include watching some movies, eating a home-cooked meal, playing a board game, baking cupcakes, or even just sipping the night away.
Painting or drawing
Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and if you’re looking for some ideas for pampering yourself this Valentine’s day, painting or drawing is sure to do the trick. Why should couples be the only ones to do fun and relaxing activities that night? Instead, why not treat yourself? You don’t even have to draw or paint anything remotely romantic. You can either try this out at home while watching some old Bob Ross videos or even look to see if there is Galantine special at your local painter’s studio.
Overall, never let some commercially-filled holiday make you feel bad for something that you somehow lack. This is nothing more than a holiday to make people spend money and feel obligated to do so. What matters is treating yourself the way you want to be treated and knowing that you don’t need another; they’re only nice to have. Overall, you should be your best friend and treat yourself to things here and there that don’t involve your birthday. But as stated earlier, you can always take this chance to have some fun with your friends too! Overall, don’t forget to pamper yourself, and never let a holiday make you question your worth!
