Meeting New people There’s nothing more I hate (aside from presentations) than meeting new people. I feel like I would get more used to it the more I do it (and indirectly my stammer would improve because I’m comfortable) but sometimes I find myself blabbering on to avoid saying something well constructed because I know, I would stammer on it if I say what I think about. Any tips to ease tension while meeting new people/ making new friends?
