honestly, it seems like a big insurmountable problem (meeting a woman) until it isn't anymore. i'm happily married for a few years now and i don't think twice about stuttering in front of my wife, but...

I see this concern come up time and time again on this sub, and I get it. Been there, for sure. It's absolutely fair to have concerns about how our stutter may affect our life, whether it be relations...

I’m a Speech Therapist who stutters and new to Reddit Hi guys, I have been lurking on here for a while and I wanted to finally take the plunge. I am new to Reddit and this is my very first post. I am...

I did the direct approach and I've been married for 23 years (24th anniversary is next month). If the other person is superficial, conceited, or immature, move on. You want someone who will like ...

Not really, I usually can't even say my own name. But that doesn't really matter, most people aren't inherently dicks. If you get to know someone and they like you, they'll often be able to past somet...

I've rarely ever had my stutter be an issue with girls. Mention it upfront if you're meeting them for the first time. If it's someone you already know then they'll be aware of it. Some people will hav...

Hahaha I don't. I've tried it like once or twice but it's so uncomfortable for me. Not just because of my stutter, but mostly just me as a person. I figure though, the best way to attract someone I'd ...

Texting, texting, texting. Fluency doesn’t matter when you’re texting. If you’re good with words when you’re texting, she will be interested enough not to care about your stutter. Also confidence. A...

Yes, it happens to me a lot. But sometimes I am so depressed that i don't give a fuck about nothing and surprisingly my stutter disappear....

> Then I started stuttering. And I stutter weirdly. Not at all. Many ailments manifest in ways individual to the person, and stuttering is no different. The head and lip motions you describe are v...

I am grateful to all of you

I am grateful to all of you There are not a lot of subreddits I see which can make me feel so comfortable with myself. Thank you so much everybody for coming out and speaking up. It's the only place t...

In situations like this I've found it easier to address up front that I have a speach disorder, sometimes you can even play it to your advantage by explaining how dealing with such a hardship your ent...

Maybe it comes with age. I was maybe 22 when I realized that I will never get rid of my stutter, that it is not my fault and that no matter who I talk to they must accept it as part of me. It was real...

First of all my guy, you're not a freak. Everyone in this world has sumthn 'wrong' with em, from weird birthmarks that take up half of their face, to one leg shorter than the other, bad acne, balding ...

I know it's obvious, but please don't get frustrated with yourself. Try and spin your stammer into something that's a bit of inconvenience to you but ultimately doesn't let you down; it rubs off on pe...

Understandably so my guy. Do u have any hobbies? What do u like to do for fun? Do u have a job? It seems like ppl at your school don't treat u so well, so if I were u, I'd look elsewhere for ppl that ...
