I'm not sure what more to say. The most attractive thing about a person is the love they have for their self. If you are self-loathing because you stutter, how could you expect someone else to love you in spite of your stutter? It is what it is. You don't speak fluently. OK, Big fucking deal. Are you otherwise a good human being? Are you kind? Are you kind to yourself? Stuttering suuuucks. No doubt about that. But it's not who you are, anymore than being near-sighted is who you are. First step to romance is to love yourself. Accept your stutter. Try working on it if you want, but don't let it consume your thoughts.
