Actually that's true! When I first meet someone, i stutter out of nervousness. But as I get closer to people, i feel more comfortable so my speech "smoothens" out. So in a way, my stuttering helps me gauge who i am comfortable with. Also as you've mentioned, it means that my inner circle people are the ones that truly looks past my stutters.
