I know how it looks. Don't overthink it. She's probably not used to this situation, but the fact is that she's interested to have a date with you, knowing you have a stutter. I laugh at my own stutte...

I'd feel exactly the same as you. I guess I appreciate that she thinks she's trying to be considerate by being up front, but is she an adult? Can she not control herself? My buzz would be killed but...

I belive, the more I think about my stutter and the more power (spending thoughts on it) I give it, the stronger and worse it becomes. Do you stutter if you record yourself and just talk nonsense? If ...
