Any Dating/ making friends tips? Hey guys, I’m 24 and I’m a very likable person as I’m told and experienced but when it comes to talking to women or trying to make friends I freeze up and talk myself out of opportunities because I’m still insecure about my stutter. I freaking make youtube videos for millions to see but when it comes to approaching women I freeze. Even women that have given me signs I just smile and wave and go about my day, I talk myself out of it because I don’t to look “dumb” when I stutter, or say that if I approach her she might not like it and the list goes on. I really want to put myself out there and just talk freely without holding myself back. Any advice will help.
