I live in the U.S. and have a friendly online and pen-pal relationship with a girl from Japan for a couple of years now.
Our relationship is just friendly at this time, no sexual talk or anything like that.
With Valentine's Day coming up, I am thinking about sending her a friendly type Valentine card but am not sure how this would be accepted.
I read that in Japan that it is the woman who gives a Valetines Day gift to the man. Is this fact? Would it be okay for a male friend from another country give a Valentine's card to a female friend in Japan? Is it normal for friends to give Valetines cards or only couples?
I thought about asking my Japanese friend, but I want it to be a surprise and don't want her to guess I might send her a card.
