Like so many on here, your story resonates with me. It’s so hard, day after day. Just know, it can get easier. Tricks and fluency techniques can help in the short term, but acceptance really is the long term fix. Acceptance is hard, but not impossible. In my experience, the less I care and accept stuttering as a piece of me - the greater my fluency is. Stutter with confidence, look people in the eye as you block. Don’t let people cut you off or finish your sentences - talk over them when you get out of your block. Allow that confidence to slowly build. Dating is hard and always will be (after a long relationship, I’m going through this now). I think of it as a numbers game. Yes, some people won’t be interested right off the back, or will be turned off because your stutter makes it hard to click on a first date. But someone will have the patience, and you will have good days where you are demonstrating the best you. The more you put yourself out there, the better your odds will be that you will meet someone. It’s not easy, but there is a way. Keep pushing that line. Your stutter doesn’t define you. Also know that you are not alone. Many of us have been there or are there now - keep reaching out for support (NSA, therapists, friends, family, here on Reddit). Never give up.
