What!! Young, sweet, good looking, caring!! hold me back, I wouldn't care if you urinated and defecated while stammering. Don't settle for anything less than you deserve, whoever gets you is some lucky dog ...I hate him already!!

On the list of speech impediments, stammering's at the bottom. People typically aren't too attracted to lisps and other impediments, but a guy might even find stammering attractive, as long as it doesn't seriously affect the conversation. I would just think the girl was nervous. :-)
Also, stammering is most often a psychological problem that can be easily remedied. Just try to build up your confidence in talking to the opposite sex and try not to get too nervous on dates (which is easier said than done).

I think it bothers some guys but not all. I have a speech problem kinda. I have trouble pronouncing the Rs and it affected me so I wouldn't talk much so nobody had a chance to say if it bothered them or not. I think it bothers the individual with the problem more than the others listening to them. Talk slower and I bet you will do better. Take your time.

Since you have this problem they're a few things you should set for yourself when it comes to dating. one is that you should right of tell you have a stammer, nothing is greater than putting the cards right out on the table. And if he can't accept it, on the the next. Don't let who you are discourage you! go do ya thang!

Sometimes guys can get intimidated by overly confident girls. Personally i find nice, quiet and nervous girls more attractive and easier to get along with. Your an attractive girl, and alot of guys are maybe going to feel nervous when first approaching and talking to you. Yet if you appear nervous by stammering then this may make them feel better. I think you are worrying over nothing...

Well, that depends on the understanding between the two. If you are on first date probably the guy might leave you. But if he is asking you out again he has either accepted this as ok or he is just looking at you for sexual reasons. So if the second one is not the case, he is the right guy.

No, I don't think I'd have a problem with it. I tend to ignore the surface things and focus on who they are. I wouldn't worry about it. If a guy is going to take a pass on you based solely on a speech problem, then you probably don't want a relationship with him anyway.

Any guy that wouldn't like being around you because of a speech problem has bigger issues than you could ever have. It shouldn't matter how you speak. It should only matter what you say.

some famous people stuttered. mel tillis is one i can think of off hand. i stuttered until i was seven and overcame it. i stutter when nervous. my speech problems haven't hindered relationships. if a guy wants you, he will overlook your faults.
