I assume your stutter isn't too severe lol... When you occasionally repeat a vowel, it's a cute and endearing quirk. When you look like you're trying to deadlift 6 plates everytime you try to say your name, it's a debilitating condition that defines your interactions with people. When you have a light stutter, you can joke about it to make her feel more comfortable. When you have a severe stutter, you'd block on the joke, and if you do somehow manage to get it out, you're rewarded with an uncomfortable confused expression on her face. Try telling [this guy](https://youtu.be/JWHUSJ6ChUE) the reason he's being rejected is "based on any and all other variables, except your stutter".
