stuttering and dating The last couple of dates I've been the person I was going out with said they thought my stutter was "cute", I don't have the fact that I stutter in my dating profile so they didn't know beforehand but I still found it kind of off-putting. Maybe the fact that they pointed out it was a major feature about me is why I didn't really like it. Should I be taking that negatively or am I overreacting?
