Content

keep your chin up man. Ive noticed that around some I stutter more vs when I am with others. some days I have good days, and others I wish I was mute out of embarrassment or shame. When I go on dates I intentionally speak slower, more methodical. it doesnt always help, nor does it completely hide stuttering, but its a little victory when I can say a word I usually struggle on. Ive learned to just let them figure it out on their own, it may just be me but Id rather not tell them. They can figure it out. and if they have a problem with it? Fine, I dont need them. There are always people who dont mind my stutter, and youll find your woman who wont mind yours. Just dont stop looking.
