I totally agree with this. The whole "league" thing has always made me sick. I don't even want to be around people like that. I mean, literally, when I hear people talking like that -- strangers --...

Are you sure it turns them off? I went on a date with a guy who had a stutter recently and I kind of liked him. I had hoped for a second date, but he never called or contacted me again. I reached ou...

Life goes on. Stutterers aren't alone in having bad dates and difficulties finding relationships. Confidence can overcome anything. I'm guessing it was a girl you spoke to online/hadn't met in person...

One of the best things that happened to me for my stutter was finding a girl who really liked it. If it's possible to you, I would recommend telling him you love how he speaks, his uniqueness, he's s...

I view stuttering as a disability. As with all disabilities, you try to manage it, if you can't, then life continues. With my 10 year old daughter who stutters also, I wanted her to first realize that...

Hi, I'm in my thirties and I've been wrestling with my stammer for as long as I can remember. Today, it's gotten a lot better but it still surfaces from time to time. It's directly correlated with how...

You can do what you want. Nobody is telling you that you MUST overcome it. But if you choose to do nothing to improve your speech then it's counterproductive to be complaining about it. See where I'm ...

There is a reason why people are drawn to- and go in the groups that share many traits with them. Try not fitting in to the world of non-stammers; instead find or construct a group of stammers or spee...

Find a support group for stuttering. I found that these helped more than speech therapy. You said that opening up to your friend made you feel better; opening up in a safe place with other PWS is a ve...
