How do you guys deal with parties? How do you guys handle yourself? When i drink i consider myself 90 % fluent, and when im not i`ll say im about 40 %. I have no problem being social at parties, but as soon as i meet for example a girl i flirted with at school the day after, i become so nervous due to her not knowing im a stutterer. It really does suck to be a "closet" stutterer, but i just cant find the motivation to tell people, so i spend all my energy hiding it instead, which sucks especially since i have the body of a greek god :) My mind and stutter is really holding me back.
