Stutterer, never had girlfriend I was always think that I will never be with a girl in my life, because my life sucks and I never wanted to ruin the life of a girl by being with her. I always stayed away from girls, keeping a distance. I had some girls as friends in past, because of my nature I pushed them away, they all were very good friends. Then I saw a girl in a bus which I take to go to work, We had some eye contact, I thought that there is something between us, I was stupid. At frist I ignored her for some months(reasons are stuttering and thought of staying away from girls), I really tried to get her out of mind, but.... Then I friend suggested me atleast I should go to talk to her. I had several crush in my life but this one was different. I heard that if you say hii to a girl and if she say hii, there is something. Ok so I decided to say hii, weeks went by to build confidence(I know it is lame but because of stuttering), and then the lamest and creepst hii I said, her reaction was "what!!!" I thought "Ok, she hates me," I can move with my life. Note: at that point, we were having eye contact for more than 6 months. I should continue this in next post, this one is getting long. But this is just a beginning... Thank you for reading, i will tell how my stutter played.
