Going on a date with a guy I met through a friend, never talked in person — Scared he will notice I stutter & somehow not like me anymore So my friend hit me up with a friend of hers another day, I've been talking to him through messaging — He's cute & nice, we've planned to meet up this saturday. Most people I know & have dated that I first met in person either don't notice or don't care, but I wonder if it'll be too jarring if I speak to him in person, even though I stutter quite mildly. I don't know if I should mention it casually or just leave it and hope he doesn't notice. But I'm quite anxious.
