No but mention it before you meet up. It helps them prepare and relaxes you a little bit more. If it’s a problem for them, they don’t deserve to be in your life anyway....

Nope, no need to. Most people won't care at all. And if/when they like you, they really won't care about your stammer. They'll like you for you, despite your speech impediment. I did all kinds of on...

Don't. On the date itself tell her early on you have a stutter. Most likely it won't affect the date and you can relieve the pressure to not stutter. For me this worked....

I don't Online dating is very much about putting your best foot forwards. It's pretty shallow at the face of it and you don't want to give them an excuse to ignore you If a conversation does devel...

I’m a man but I just told my girlfriend outright so she wouldn’t be caught off guard if I had a big block or anything like that. Obviously you’ll meet a jerk every now and again but if they’re a half ...
