It's all in your head, my friend. Get over yourself. I have a stutter, and I also have a college degree, a successful career (of which I have to talk a lot) and am married. Sure stuttering sucks, but so do so many other things. You think stuttering is so horrible? Try being homeless or abused or mentally ill. We stutter. So what? It's something we do, it's not who we are. We are brothers and sisters, husbands and wives, business owners and employees, friends and acquaintances, students and teachers, sons and daughters. We are more than a stutter. You are more than your stutter.
