I was glad she was honest, wouldn't prefer it any other way. TBH I think asking her that is a terrible idea. First of all, if it was the case that the stutter was an issue, she'll most likely lie abo...

Yeah I’m pretty sure I stutter because of my confidence levels as when I was on school break I didn’t have any problems with my stutter. I only stuttered on a few words but as soon as I started school...

He’s adorable! I do not stutter with my dogs or my cats, and if my anxiety isn’t at a high, I don’t stutter on voice chats much. I think for me it’s the lack of face to face. Although I feel a lot mor...

I can't speak to why he might not be comfortable with it, but for me it was sort of a mix of multiple different reasons. The main one is that I viewed having my sentences finished for me as basically ...
