Meh. I stutter pretty bad and I just flat out tell people. Especially when I’m having bad blocks. All my friends know. And people that I see/date often I tell them. Trying to hide it makes me seem ...

Tell him! The sooner, the better. If you don't know how to do it, start with telling him that you thought this thing was insignificant to mention, that's why you did not tell him before. Also tell ...

I feel the exact same way! I’ve been dating my bf for over 3 years and I ended up telling him about it 1.5 years in when I was drunk, but then didn’t mention it again until a few weeks ago. And he was...

I am going to be honest with you. Your boyfriend knows.  For example, everyone I know, knows that I stutter. But no one brings it up. People don't really talk about others disability, it's weird awk...

I don't think he'll be mad. Most probably he already knows you stutter, but it doesn't bother him. Happy for you though ...

If you intend on being with him for the long-term, which it seems like you might be considering you’ve already committed over a year, you need to tell him! Just explain your sensitivity to discussing ...

I agree with this. Tell them you stutter while talking on the app. NOT the first time you meet them. If someone doesn’t know you stutter before you do, there’s always going to be some amount of ‘shoc...

Definitely tell him. I've met another stutterer once betfore, and was too afraid to tell him that I stutter too. His stutter was more pronounced than mine and I felt like he would think i'm making fun...

I would definitely recommend being up front about your stammer either in your profile (possibly with some light humour) or in your messages. That way you’ll be more relaxed as you know that they know ...

Thank you for the response. Disclosing my stutter in this way is something I've never done in an attempt to not draw any more attention to it. However, I realize my stutter is to severe to hide and ...

I think many of us can relate to this problem. Sometimes when I start speaking it’s relaxed without many stutters, but with long talking it can start to get worse and then it’s a spiral that only gets...
