Today, I tried to hold my new boyfriend's hand while on a date. He let go quickly though, letting me know that we aren't at "that stage" of the relationship yet. We've been having sex for two weeks now. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my boyfriend of one week kissed my stomach and began speaking to our "baby." We haven't had sex yet. In fact, I'm still a virgin. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I had sex for a second time. When I was getting dressed afterwards with him sitting next to me, there was a silence. To break it, he grabbed my hand and fistbumped me. FML
Today, I was on a movie date with my boyfriend, when he asked for a handjob. I thought I was doing well until he sighed, took my hand off, and said he could finish on his own. FML
Today, I was riding in the car with my boyfriend. While he was driving, I held out my hand as an offer for him to hold it. Instead, he grabs me by the wrist and shoves my hand down his pants. Lovely. FML
Today, I finally felt ready to have sex for the first time, with my boyfriend of nearly 8 months. When I told him, things became intimate and pants came off. He then looked at me and said, "Yeah, I can't do this." The rest of the night was spent in awkward silence. FML
Today, I was on a second date with a guy. Things got a little handsy and he pulled down his pants to reveal a micro-penis. He then smiled and asked me to be his girlfriend. FML
Today, after being friends with a guy, age 35, for a year, he asked if we could progress the relationship romantically. I'm keen but it's been a month, and the closest touching we have done is a hug. Slowest relationship ever. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me. While he was dumping me, he was holding hands with his new girlfriend. FML
Today, after making love to my boyfriend for the first time, he shook my hand and said, "Good job." FML
Today, my boyfriend of over a year decided he wants us to wait to get married before having sex again, after we've had sex almost every night of being together. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hate to be THAT person on FML, but I would seriously consider leaving that relationship. If he's ******* you but can't be bothered to hold your hand in public, that's a bit of a red flag. Then again you could always talk to him, but this just seems a bit suspect to me. EDIT: And to the comments before me, using sex as a weapon is immature.

Why even withhold sex, if it seems like he's just wanting a friend's with benefits situation, maybe you two need to have a talk. If that's not your thing, I'd suggest moving on because he seems like a fuckboy only capable of being a decent lay (not a decent boyfriend). Buuuut, that's just my two cents.

if he won't hold your hand in public but you are sleeping together that's not a boyfriend that's a friend with benefits. sorry, op, but been there done that.

He seems to be here for he sex, not for a deep emotional relationship. I'd leave if this keeps up.

I read an article that talked about how holding hands in public is actually now a more intimate act than sex.

I wouldn't think too much into it. Some guys just don't like holding hands. It's a PDA thing and some just aren't comfortable with that. I would talk to him first about it. I'm in a relationship and we never hold hands. Never really have. He just doesn't like it. However, we are married so I'm inclined to say it's not a FWB situation.

If that's the case, he needs to say it. Being uncomfortable with PDA is different than believing they aren't "at that stage."

That was my first reaction, that he's not in to PDA. My boyfriend never has, and never will, hold my hand in public, even though at home we hold hands constantly, and I can't fall asleep without his hand in mine. We've been together for a year and a half, and we're having a baby in the spring. So I'm pretty sure he's not embarrassed to be out with me, he just doesn't feel comfortable with public affection.

Drop him now

Sex isn't actually a stage in a relationship. Some people will always be uncomfortable with PDA. Also what you do in private is different than what you do in public (if you've been having sex in public though he should be holding your hand).
