Going out with your closest friends and getting all dressed up often seems like the perfect way to spend your Friday night, especially after a long week of classes. But, it is just important to have a girls night in once in a while for the following reasons:

1. Going out can be tiring after a while. Sometimes you just need to take a break from all the partying and take some time to relax, while still having fun of course.

2. A night in is almost always accompanied by wine. And who doesn’t enjoy having a glass, or a few glasses for that matter, and chatting about life. Not to mention, a girls night in is the perfect time to have a catch up session on the latest gossip after a busy week.

3. You can wear sweat pants. Let’s be honest, a girls night in is way more comfortable than a girls night out.

4. You can indulge in pizza and other unhealthy snack food items without feeling judged.

5. You can have a dance party and it doesn’t matter how embarrassing you look because no one else will be watching besides your closest friends. Again, no judgement zone.

6. You can have a marathon of the sappiest rom-coms and fall in love with your celeb crush over and over again.

7. Your friendship grows even stronger and you realize after another girls night in that they’ll always be there for you no matter what.
