Sometimes you just need to put yourself out there. Like really out there. I’ve met several girlfriends online. I met one girlfriend by putting my number on a cup when I was a barista at Starbucks. Another through a friend of a friend. Approach people in public, ask/give out your number, get on apps but be creative with your opening messages, etc. You don’t have too, nor should you uproot yourself to meet women. When I feel myself stuttering on a date I start doing something with my hands or just taking a minute to myself. Many girls have told me my stutter is cute, which is strange to hear but nice overall.
