<human>: Hey guys,

I have asked friends and family for advice but wanted to ask you guys here at Relationship_advice because I think there must but something better I can do.

Long version:
I have been working at my store for 3 months now and this girl started working at the cafe outside my work about 1 1/2 months ago. At that time she had a boyfriend and I played the casual role of just chatting everynow and then to be friendly with her, but flirted a little bit - and as weeks progressed we did get closer (still didn't see her outside of work yet)
Skip to 2 weeks ago, I found out she broke up with her boyfriend, whats even more interesting is that I found out that they had been having troubles for 1 year and have had on and off periods during that time.
She told me the reason she has still been with him all this time was because he was 'her first love'.

Things have been getting quite interesting lately, and we have been talking a lot more. Now over facebook & calls. She has told me openly that its ended with her ex, but on occasion he just rocks up randomly to try and 'win her back', they fight for a couple of hours and he leaves.

She asked me out for some drinks last night and I was sooo keen to go and super excited to get out and be social with her. Although, 3 hours before our "date" she texted me and explained that "She is soo sorry but 'ex' just rocked up and she has hardly had time to message me this, but please know that she really wanted to come. Or so she said.

I am sooo confused with what to do with this situation.
I have two voices in my head, one telling me she is just playing the game and leading you on & one telling me that this is really the situation  and maybe she is keen but doesn't want me to get involved whilst things are happening with the ex.

Valentines day is coming up and I want to express my emotions towards her and we have organised to hang out after she finishes work tomorrow (Valentines day). I have already bought flowers, but am 50/50 on giving them to her or not.

Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?
<bot>: Girl I'm chasing is still caught up with ex, she ditched me last night cause of an argument with him, considering whether or not to give her a valentines gift and give her another chance. What do?
