so, i have been married for a few years now, we've been together for six years in total. basically, like with most people trying to find someone, i put a ton of effort into dating for several years. dating sites and apps are great since you can build a connection before you have to speak. a lot of people didn't care that i stuttered, but some definitely did. i would say the first few dates at an early age were terrible and nerve-wracking, but to be honest, i think that's how it is for most folks. over the years, i got used to it and adapted "skills" (i would say) on the type of dates that worked for me, asking the person out, how to keep the conversation going, etc. the key points i would make is that there are people out there who would probably love to be with you and don't care that you stutter. i used to think that "revealing the stutter" was like showing my true form as a cripple or a monster but that's overly harsh. the other thing i wish i could tell my younger self is that it probably would have helped to have been upfront with people about my stuttering rather than try to pull every trick and game in the book to pretend i was a fluent speaker. good luck!
