When you do not have a partner on Valentine’s Day, or you do not have the resources to plan an extravagant outing, these are ten affordable Galentine’s Day activities for you and your friends to enjoy.
1. Homemade meal
A homemade meal avoids the cost of an expensive outing while also giving you a space to eat your feelings away.
2. Movie night
Put on “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before,” or if you are in need of a cry session, “The Notebook.”
3. Sunset stroll
Go for a nice walk or hike at sunset for a pretty view and a workout. Just make sure to bring a flashlight.
4. Spa night
Relax and decompress through some self-care, no partner needed.
5. Visit a museum
Spend the day exploring exhibits and sculptures for a low-cost activity.
6. Game or puzzle night
Trade the games your situationship always plays for a cozy night in with your friends.
7. Crafting party
Paint hoodies, make jewelry, or create a memory book with your friend group.
8. Platonic love letters
Spread the warmth by writing compliments and kind words for the form of love that often goes unappreciated: friendship.
9. Visit a bookstore or thrift store
Explore a selection of books or clothes for a fun day. Maybe stay away from the romance section.
10. Stargazing
End the day looking at the beautiful night sky, potentially with hot cocoa.
