Today, I was at a football game with my boyfriend. I said my hands were getting cold, hoping he'd hold them. He replied, "Uh, they make pockets for a reason..." and physically showed me how to put my hands in my pockets. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while at a football game, I had my arm around my girlfriend. We were really close and I was just about to kiss her when suddenly her phone rang. It was her dad, telling her he's watching. FML
Today, I checked my jacket pocket for my smartphone, all while still holding my smartphone. FML
Today, I was making out with my boyfriend and he was moving his hand from his thigh to my chest but on the way he sort of squeezed my stomach. When I asked him why he did that, he told me that "his fingers got stuck under my roll." FML
Today, I handed my friend his phone, telling him he'd forgotten it. He responded by taking his phone out of his pocket and showing it to me. I then realized I was holding MY phone. FML
Today, on a movie date with my boyfriend, it took me a while to understand why he was leaning on his elbow during the entire thing. He had an earpiece cupped in his hand and was listening to a soccer match. FML
Today, my family went to a football game. It was a little cold, but then it started to rain. I wasn't dressed for rain and I'd left my umbrella in the car. My dad wouldn't let us leave our seats for the whole game. FML
Today, I was on a subway with my boyfriend and it was stopping so I grabbed the pole for support. I felt another hand grabbing onto the pole knowing it was my boyfriend's. Without looking I carressed and tickled his hand. I turned around to smile at my boyfriend. The hand wasn't his. FML
Today, I went to see a hockey game. The announcer asked if anybody found a ring in the stands, because a girl lost hers. While he talked about it, I realised that I forgot mine in my pocket, so I took MY ring and put it on my finger. A guy saw me and thought I stole the lost one. FML
Today, my family was watching a football game and kept mentioning their team's quarterback's name and, as I'm not a football fan by any means, asked them who this was. My grandma then turned to me and said, "This is why you don't have a boyfriend." FML
Today, I was feeling very ill after a severe anxiety attack. I asked my boyfriend to hold my hand until I fell asleep. He said he couldn't because he needed both hands to play on his gameboy. FML

Honestly, that's probably what I'd say too. I'm very sarcastic though...

#13 what #1 was trying to say is that what the boyfriend did is mean, not nice, not what a boyfriend would do (etc...)

Men are not mind readers. If you want your hands held, just say "my hands are cold, warm them up for me?" and grab his hand. Done.

Maybe OP's boyfriend was trying to be helpful, and as one wise man said: "Give a man a fish and he will be fed for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will be fed for a lifetime." Either that or he's a total idiot who can't take a hint.

he shouldnt have thought you were dumb enough to not know how pockets work, but you also could have said "hey babe hold my hands? they're cold" guys arent mind-readers

well said #5.

I agree. People (not just women) should just be open and honest about what they want. It makes a lot more sense than trying to get someone to pay attention to you based on a dumb mind game or being vague.

I understand that he could've misunderstood you. But the way he replied was really cold (hehe).

OP sometimes boys can't connect the dots that easily, I can speak from experience

Not entirely sure why you're getting down voted. As a male, I can say with confidence that I'm dense as **** and might not have figured out her meaning.

Or sometimes people should just ask for what they want instead of trying to make inferences for others to figure out.

Some dudes don't like getting interrupted during football games I guess.

Pockets keep your hands warmer anyways.
