1.) I'm not capable of hiding it. I don't disclose it before hand but I'm considering doing it in the future. I usually stutter a bit and then mention that I have a speech disorder. They say something like, "oh your fine". 2.) They give me a chance. They never have tried to leave. I guess they can get uncomfortable when I have a long block. 3.) I don't think they work out because I'm just not able to be entertaining when I'm stuttering that bad. E.g. I can't make them laugh because of required timings. One where the text chat went very well. I asked her why she didn't want to go out again and she said, "it's obvious you've got a lot to work on". Kinda hurt. We had a ton in common too. Another blamed it on still not being able to get over her ex. Another was a distance thing. Come to think of it, I've only been on 3 dates lol. These all came from Tinder.
