I am confused. You are talking about his stutter like it was a new development in the relationship. Did he not stutter when you met him? And can you clarify what you're struggling to accept? If I'...

Change your perspective man. Don't pass negative beliefs like the victim mentality and "it's a curse" to your children. You are in the best position to teach your kids how to have courage, not be asha...

Listen to me. Just because we stutter, it does not mean we are not deserving of relationships like everyone else. I am in my 40’s and I am single by choice. But, do I choose to be single (at least for...
