I thought back to when we first met, and he had a couple of other girls interested in him. Was I bitchy and jealous around him? Oh no no no...I turned on the charm. So that's what I did.
From what you wrote, I think it worked. He may have felt guilty for not giving you a valentine card and apologized for not getting you anything but he didn't have to wish you a Happy V Day and he certainly didn't have to give you a kiss.
I think you are correct in saying that when you flirted in the past he may not have been ready for it but also remember to do it in small doses so that he doesn't feel like you are in control of his feelings. If the feelings grow gradually, he will not realize what may be happening and by the time he does, he may realize that home with you and the kids is where he wants to be.
If there is OW, don't even think about it as it does you no good to go there. Since you don't know whether or not there is one, act like there isn't.
I'm so glad you still had a chance to go out and enjoy yourself. It is great that you and your Mom are able to spend quality time together.
