Galantine is a day to celebrate friendships, to celebrate the gals who bring you through tough times and are always there for you. But make sure you do not confuse it for a 17th century French dish. Valentine on the other hand celebrates one person, the special someone, your sweetheart. So, what is more important to you your gal pals or your dearly beloved. Which one will you choose- Galentine or valentine? 

 

If you do not have a special someone then galantine will be the obvious choice. It covers you in friends and company that you can trust not a blanket and the four corners of your room as you have no one with you. It gives you a chance to celebrate other significant figures in your life. The only downside to this would be having all your friends celebrating valentines leaving you with your own company. 

Valetines day is a refreshing breather as it reminds us to celebrate one true person who is there for us even when the world turns its back on you. It is filled with flowers and presents and the good old chocolate covered strawberries which everyone loves. But what if you do not have a special someone, will that not just mean you celebrate a special day in a way, by yourself. 

Galantine is a desirable choice for those who wish to remain single, but do not want to miss out on special occasions just because of their life choices. ‘It can be experienced by anyone and allows everyone to be appreciated and celebrate their friendships.’ as said in an anonymous interview. But for all the romantics valentines will suit you better. Having both eliminates the chance for nearly anyone to miss out.
