1. Only do what you are comfortable with and at your own pace. No shame in that at all and you shouldn't have to justify it to people. 2. Hiding your stutter making things a lot worse than you think....

18M here. First things first, the view that at 22 you shouldn't be a virgin is completely untrue. I've been in a relationship before and most of the obstacles from stuttering actually come from the ...
