18 Texts To Send Your Single Best Friend On Valentine's Day, Because That's True Love

Valentine's Day may traditionally be all about romantic love. Hence all the sappy hearts, cupids, and teddy bears... everywhere. But corniness aside, the holiday is actually a perfect excuse to celebrate the people in your life who you truly love. Not just whoever you happen to be dating (or not dating) at the moment, but the ones who stick with you through it all. I am talking about your best friends. If you think about it, they're the people who really deserve a holiday. So having texts to send your single best friend on Valentine's Day is a great start.

This is especially true if your bestie hasn’t gotten the whole Galentine's Day memo and is bummed out about being a swinging single on V-Day. To be fair, there is a ton pressure to be cuffed up this time of year, and that can make you feel lonely even when you shouldn't. So it's nice to remind them that they aren't alone, because you always have each other.

But what makes a good V-Day text to your BFF? It should be something that puts a smile on their face and lets them know that you are the person who really just gets them. Something that says, "We're in this together, boo!" Still need some inspiration? No worries, I've got you covered with plenty of ideas to get your Valentine's Day texting fingers typing.
