Ok, admit it. You can be a bit obsessive. Hey, that’s love! It’s not your fault — it hijacks the brain! If you’re like me, you want to spend all your time with your boo. But, is that really healthy?

We all hate it when our best girlfriends go MIA after meeting a new squeeze. So why be that girl? It’s important to have your own life, your own friends, and your own interests. Besides, absence makes the heart grow fonder.
So what’s the solution? A girl’s-only getaway, of course! Here’s how to plan the perfect long-weekend away:
- Start a Facebook Group and invite your best girlfriends. Make sure it’s set to private so you don’t get randos or non-besties trying to join.
- Find a long weekend that works for all of you, to go on a trip together. Make sure everyone comments and confirms! @Tag your friends to make sure they see the most important messages.
- Pick a vacation destination. My favorite way to do this is to pick an event, festival, concert, or destination spa and base the trip around that. If you need ideas, here’s a list of the best music festivals.


What destinations, concerts, or events do you think would be perfect for a girl’s getaway?



I’m letting my best friends read this. They need to go on a vacation getaway with me.
My girl friends need a lot more convincing than this. We don’t mind hanging out for a few hours or so but getting out of town is a different story. I love my besties but it’s so difficult to leave our husbands/boyfriends! It’s like they could burn the house down if we leave them alone with the kids. Seriously, they’d miss us too much! ? I remember us girls planning a trip this one time and our husbands/boyfriends wanted to come with us and they kept telling us that they’re not going to bother us during the trip and that they’d sleep in another hotel. ? It was too funny!
Thanks for the tip. It’s like I’m being nudged and told: “Hey, go on a vacation already.”
