I’m 24M, and let’s just say I’m not hard on the eyes.  Girls always hit me up with compliments, but it’s all kinda moot.  I can’t even talk to a girl I’m into on the street, because I know I’m gonna stutter, and it’s gonna be a total disaster.  My stuttering has messed with my head for years. I grew up super shy and timid because of it.  I’d love to have a way more active social life, but I can't and it’s just so frustrating I’ve had long-term relationships before, and I’m not totally celibate now (though it’s pretty rare), but I’d definitely say my stuttering has a big impact on these things
