When is bestfriend day 2011

People generally mark this day by tying a friendship band on each other's wrists. It is treated as a promise to be each other's best friends forever BFFs. This day was first proposed in Paraguay in as International Friendship Day.

However, it is believed that it first originated from Hallmark cards in the s, whose founder was Joyce Hall. Friendship Day started as a marketing strategy at first. Hall designated the day to celebrate the people closest to us, who matter the most, and in the process, send them a card to show them that we're thinking about them. The marketing strategy shaped an official holiday, announced by the US Congress in , to be celebrated on the first Sunday of August every year.

With the coronavirus pandemic forcing people to stay at home this year, many people won't get a chance to meet their closest friends. However, one can always reach out with the help of several social media platforms available today and let them know how special they are. Follow more stories on Facebook and Twitter.

Schedule a time to meet up, FaceTime, or talk on the phone, and update that person on all the happenings of your life. Trust us—they want to hear all about it! Purchase and send a gift to your favorite confidant.

After all those long phone calls, wild nights out, and crazy exes, your person deserves a treat! We recommend a gift certificate to a spa. Reminisce on good memories. Look through your old photos, read that tattered journal, and show your findings to your best friend. These furry friends deserve a little extra love this holiday. The majority of best friend relationships are formed in childhood.

Studies show that having a trusted friend in our lives can reduce stress and improve our immune systems. Sharing our burdens with a stable companion seems to improve quality of life significantly.

From childhood friends to college party partners, many Americans consider their best friend circle to extend past one person. Many best friend relationships outlive marriages, cross-country moves, and even our parents.

The magic of platonic love can withstand even the worst struggles. Luckily, best friends are always there to lighten the mood. They understand us, respect us and, best of all, they know when to give us space. Naturally, many of our best friends have something important in common with us. Like human spa days, our best friends always know how to bring us zen. We keep track of fun holidays and special moments on the cultural calendar — giving you exciting activities, deals, local events, brand promotions, and other exciting ways to celebrate.
