I’m an engineer in SF (previously worked in Europe). Career-wise I’m sorted, but the arranged marriage market has been a pretty bizarre experience lately. Just to be upfront, I have a slight stammer, especially with complex words. I always tell the girl's side right away. Yet, it still shocks me when people who already know this abruptly hang up mid-call or act straight-up rude in person. Rejection is a normal part of life, no complaints there. But you can easily say 'no' while maintaining basic decency and courtesy. Honestly, the lack of empathy in people these days keeping me low most of the time after these conversations. 🥲

Why confess, can't they understand by themselves in a meeting. Be confident, don't show it as a lacunae. Say it's temporary and it wil be gone. And keep searching for treatments, which is mainly behavorial (self training). As it's treatable in due course anyway

You deserve better than them. A stammer is nothing, it doesn't define you. You are much much more than your stammer.

People when they are rude for no apparent reason are often rude to hide their own inferiority complex. May be, not stammering is the only and only thing they are ahead of you. So chill - you are doing good.

Indians know how to say ‘No’ politely. Two things stop them 1. Allegedly 5000 year old sadist civilisation 2. Greed: they want to keep you in waiting list

Girls earning 3L expect 1Cr package from prospective husband. Screw that. Live your life. You can’t expect good behavior from cheap people.
