My freshman year in the dorms, I met some great dudes and we used to play a game along the lines of “guess the most absurd thing he’s going to say while he’s stuttering”. I’d be stuck on a word like “I gotta go to the b…” (tying to say ‘bathroom’) and they’d all blurt out things like ‘banana stand!’ or ‘bed bath and beyond!’ And it was sincerely the most fun I’ve ever had. These guys loved me and had my back and we all laughed together at the ridiculous things they’d think of while I stuttered. My point is, don’t let your stutter stop you from making friends. The right people won’t care. Try to give yourself a break from worrying about what people think and enjoy the experience and enjoy the people you meet. The rest will fall into place.
