How was National Boyfriend Day formed
The origins of this day or who created is still unknown but there are chances that it is a result of social media. Every year more people seem to be sharing posts online about National Boyfriend Day on October 3rd, and that is how word about the day keeps spreading.
Initially, the term 'boyfriend' was used to designate a male friend of a young man. However, in 1909, the word boyfriend began being used in English as a way to talk about a "woman's paramour". Up until the 1920s, prospective boyfriends had to visit a lady at her house to court her in front of her family, to get their approval of her. But the Roaring Twenties brought the concept of "dating", and courtship slowly faded away.
