Hey, I just want to say—I see you. That must’ve been incredibly tough to sit through, especially when you already knew it might happen. Watching yourself in the mirror like that, feeling exposed—it’s a kind of vulnerability that hits hard. But please know this: stuttering does not define your worth or how deserving you are of genuine connection. The expressions, the twitch, the pauses—they’re all human. They show effort, emotion, and resilience, not weakness. I’m really proud of you for getting through it, even if it felt painful. And for what it’s worth, someone who ghosts you after one convo wasn’t capable of seeing you clearly anyway. Keep going. You’re not alone.
