No, you don’t love this man. Sometimes my boyfriend gets a bit frustrated with me when we our in a store, for example, and I am talking low and he has to keep asking me to repeat myself. Once I explained to him that I talk low in public because I’m very self conscious of people possibly hearing me stutter and judging, we talked about it and gave EACH OTHER feedback and possible solutions. No, it doesn’t sound like you’re trying. You didn’t once mention actually having a conversation with him about his speech to try and understand anything from his point of view. Your whole post is about how it affects YOU.
