YEAH so that gray area is always really hard this time of year because you don't wanna rush things or pretend to have some deep emotion that hasn't formed yet. On the flip side, pretending it isn't happening is a recipe for hurt feelings on the off-chance that one of you is kindasortamaybe hoping that ~something special happens~. I'd address the holiday. Just say that you wanna spend time together, maybe watch a favorite movie or go to a place you both like. Keep it casual but trust me, there's no getting around Valentines Day, it's like an elephant in the room but also the elephant is kinda horny and the room is kinda small, just, a nightmare you know?
