I understand where you’re coming from. Us stutterers already worry about everyday people judging us for our speech impediment. It’s especially worse when it comes to someone who we like because we want to “impress” them so badly, particularly at the beginning stages of the relationship. As a mild stutterer, I also understand that for the most part, our stuttering can somewhat go under the radar. However, just as you’ve mentioned, we also have our “off days” when it gets really bad, almost like a severe stutter. Those days are dreadful, and it’s almost impossible to conceal our speech impediment on those off days. I can tell you one thing, though - if this woman really likes you for you, she will look past that because of the good qualities that you do possess. My partner surely has. He accepts me for who I am, and he still thinks very highly of me, despite my stutter. My stutter has in no way made him respect or love me any less. Also, over the years (I am now 31), I’ve realized that we are often our worse critics. It’s not gonna be an easy journey, but you will eventually not let your stutter define who you are. When I was in my 20’s, nearly my entire identity revolved around being a stutterer. I thought I’d never be able to have a career in the field that I have now, comfortably communicate with strangers, order what I want at a restaurant without stuttering, etc. However, here I am kicking ass. Although I still have a mild stutter that fluctuates, sometimes I’ll even forget that I stutter. As I’ve mentioned, it’s not easy for us stutterers to overcome these mental roadblocks, but I have confidence you will eventually develop confidence. Remember that confidence is one of the most attractive traits an individual can have, and you just gotta own who you are!! Don’t beat yourself up too much. She already sees you for the wonderful gentleman that you are, otherwise she wouldn’t even be so smitten with you right now.
