>"*I tend to stutter more around people I'm more comfortable with, or probably more accurate to say people that I'm excited to talk to.*" I see. I found a reddit poll about this exact thing you mentioned. In [this ](https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/comments/12yiriq/do_you_stutter_more_or_less_if_you_speak_with/) poll, around 52% of people - stutter more with strangers and 48% stutter more with family and friends.. almost 50-50%. It's surprising I guess.
