I'm 23M and I rarely stutter when I'm flirting or talking to girls I like. My gf of 6+ years never realized I stuttered until I told her. So, I guess I was lucky that way. She was with me in so many other situations when I stuttered and I even started stuttering to her also now and then as my stutter got worse with age. She had watched a comedy/drama movie based on stuttering so she was actually aware of what stuttering was. I was always encouraged by her whenever I was sad about crucial moments I stuttered. Basically, there are many people out there who are patient, kind and understanding. I am sure you will find a man who will be all three and more but you must also ensure that you make it easy for him by not getting too depressed and closed off from potential men approaching and trying to talk to you. I have seen many girls waiting for a man to talk to them and I feel you should go talk to the men you like. It is much better if you initiate a conversation because you will be in control of how it goes and nobody will just leave. Many people feel rejection is hard but I think getting rejected by a person who initially liked you is harder, so approach men and even get rejected if you must. It will even turn out to be a good way to practise speaking and getting used to not feeling embarrassed when you stutter, especially around men.
