Of course. I would think every stutterer has this issue. I was a wreck in my teens and twenties trying to talk to women. In my 30s, it occurred to me, if i approach women with no intentions, such as creating a relationship or taking them home somehow, my speech issue was not as obvious. So, these days, my goal in approaching women is saying hello, nothing more. I have accepted that I don't have the verbal skills to appeal to women, so I go in the situation with the expectation that it will lead to nothing. This way, my speech impediment is not holding me back. Amazingly, it does lead to, at minimum, a friendship more often then not. I've even had it lead to more than a friendship in some cases. My advice, don't go into a situation with expectations.
