It's actually affected my dating life positively. My first girlfriend thought my stutter was the 'cutest thing she'd ever seen'. The summer from when I was 17-18 really turned my life around as she gave me bucket loads of confidence. At University, it helped more than anything. It made me memorable around campus and a lot of girls thought it was very cute. I guess you just need to push yourself out of your comfort zone and you never know what will happen. Now, I'm very much a part of the 'Tinder generation', so I've been dating girls from there. Again, no issues. 90% of people don't care; that's what I've found.
