How am I supposed to get a gf at 21M?

How am I supposed to get a gf at 21M? I've never dated or hardly done much because of my stutter and me feeling not deserving of love like that and I don't know how other stutterers even do it?...

As you know, it's very complicated, all moments vary in fluency intensity. For me it's depending on with whom I'm speaking with, what subject, If they talk fast, I can feel it in my speech, but of cou...

Yeah I have seen those jokes a lot. I hate how they act like stuttering is caused by anxiety. When I was a little kid I stuttered without any anxiety. The anxiety comes from people’s reactions and how...

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Yeah they just don’t wanna hear it because it wouldn’t mean them having to come to terms with their malpractice and treatment towards us....
