I don't stutter but I fell in love with a guy who does. We met online, and it's one of the first things he wrote about himself. I thought it, and the way he told me about it, was extremely adorable, a...

My boyfriend didn’t think much of it. I tried to hide it from him but sooner or later it happened and he said nothing about it. I told him I stuttered and he just thinks of it as another part of who I...

My girlfriend doesn’t care really all that much. She only makes fun of it, in which I do the same thing. We have a good time making fun of it. As for your situation, try and start a conversation wit...

Accept your anxiety. The more you try denying it, the stronger it becomes. It's like saying, Don't think about pink elephants. That's all you will end up doing. Accept the anxiety and that it is ok an...
