Stay strong! We've all been there and we know how you feel. I will try to give some advices from my personal experiences so i hope it helps you i any way :D First, ofcourse you should never give up you said that you only want a job and you will be soo happy so just remember no matter how many job interviews you do, you only need to be accepted in one to get want you always wanted, it will be painful ofcourse because of how some people treat us (people with stuttering) but if we stop to think about what they think of us we will never get anywhere, so it will be hard continuing to apply to jobs, but i had to apply to dozens of them just to get one of them, so don't give up I'm sure you will get there at one point and it will be all worth it, because mostly the people who will accept you even if you have this problem, you will love the time working with them (that's what I experienced) Second advice is for the interview itself, something i did was that i began the interview by addressing my problem, and trust me some of them will understand and those people you will even enjoy yourself in the interview because some obstacles have been cleared and they won't look at the stutter in a wrong way (in a way that reflects on your work and so on, i hope it makes sens), so just be clear about your stuttering and how that's not going to affect your work, in interviews they mostly look for logic and reason so if you come prepered to counter their arguments and so on they will be satisfied! so I really hope that helped you in anyway! Side note: don't leave your bf for a reason such as this because I'm sure your bf doesn't think of you as a burden trust me, I know that i don't personally know your man but i was in relationships with girls that had problems and I've never thought they were a burden and vice versa they never thought I was a burden bc of such problems (except the toxic ones ofcourse).
