Trouble making friends, finding partners because stutter?
Content
Trouble making friends, finding partners because stutter? Has anyone ever experienced this prevailing sense of… discrimination for lack of better words, when trying to date or make friends because you stutter. I always notice after we hangout, we have fun but there seems to be less interest in doing anything each time. It may be other compatibility or personality issues at play but my stutter seems to be the only thing that appears to make them visibly uneasy. I can’t tell jokes properly, I can’t uncinate properly, I’m not a good story teller, thus my charisma is lower.. Not trying to have a pity party, just wondering what’s wrong.
