Hi Craig,
I'm so pleased you enjoyed reading our story. When we haven't met anyone I think it's so easy to fall into the trap of believing that we never will, when the only thing wrong with us is that we stutter. I know it's an obvious observation but I think we do need to remind ourselves of this fairly often as the stuttering does tend to colour the way we feel about ourselves. What I would say is take every opportunity you can to meet or get in contact with other people, even if it's only on the net or at your local support group or chapter - I used to believe somehow the love of my life would somehow fall into my lap or appear at my front door. Sadly, this very rarely happens, so we have to take a few proactive steps ourselves to start things happening - in our case, by meeting in the Stuttering Chat chatroom and in person at last year's Boston Convention.
Anyhow, very best of luck...and PLEASE keep looking, you never know where or when you might find them!!
Fingers crossed :-)
Tobe and Chris
