We are close in age and have been good friends since we were young. My sister (let’s call her Alice) is a very romantic person by nature and has been with her boyfriend (Trevor) for over a year. She adores him, and he seems nice. My boyfriend and I got together just before Valentine’s, and I am not nearly as romantic, and my boyfriend knows that.
When Alice and I discussed Valentine’s plans (as girls do), she was super hyped about it

I was happy for her because I know how much she loves all that romantic stuff… My boyfriend and I just planned to hang out that day instead of “doing” something because our relationship was new.
Come Valentine’s, my boyfriend shows up with roses, a whole bag of chocolates and candy, a stuffed animal with hearts, a hand-written card, and everything

But when I talked to her, she was just like, “Oh, we didn’t do anything”

Why?” She just said that Trevor “doesn’t really do Valentine’s.” I thought it was a lame answer, so I pried a little further, and he didn’t get her flowers or anything and didn’t even want a date night. She kept saying things like, “Oh, but I’m not really a flower girl anyway.” I was kinda upset at Trevor because she was so excited and had made plans, but my boyfriend says it’s none of my business, really. My boyfriend says Trevor has been in several relationships, so maybe Valentine’s isn’t special anymore, but I think he could have at least done it for her sake. AITA for being upset, or is it really none of my business, and maybe I’m being too sensitive?
