I didn’t date until I was 20 (currently 22) and have been dating a girl for almost a year now. She is patient with my stutter and doesn’t care about it neither does her family. At first I thought she was out of my league but I realized I only thought that because of my stutter. I didn’t think I’d be in a serious relationship 2 years ago I was thinking the same things that you were thinking. I wish you luck and my advice is to be patient but don’t be afraid of putting yourself out there and getting out of your comfort zone. I hope you soon realize that a lot of people don’t care as much about your stutter as you think they do!
