<human>: Last summer a friend whom I've known for 12 years, we've been friends with benefits for about 8 years (on and off) came to visit me in Europe. We had a great time and ever since she's been sending me cards and stuff, basically saying she loves me in every way possible without actually saying so. She asked me if I would be in a relationship about a month before x-mas, and I accepted since I was going back to the states for that time. We had a good time. In fact, we love each other, but I'm in the service and I won't be finished for another 18 months. On the last day, we talked about pursuing the LDR thing. We concluded that we should basically push pause until I get out of the service. We did this to avoid unnecessary pressure to make things work and cause resentment. So here is my question for you: Should I get her something for Valentine's Day or her birthday?

<bot>: We live very far apart, we love each other, but decided to "push pause" until we can move closer together in 18 months. Do I still get her a Valentine's day/birthday gift?
