My social skills are really shitty. A lot of the stuff I am reading on the sidebar is for "the nice guys" and I could say that I guess I am a nice guy, but my bigger problem is social skills. I just don't know how to talk to girls, and school makes it 10x worse. I have heard people recommend how to win friends and influence people, which I have read a bit last year, but a lot of it seemed non genuine to me. I am a junior in high school and have no close friends that are girls, the really only semi close friends that are girls are a co worker and my friends girlfriend. Any advice on how to talk to people better and talk with girls better and create better relationships? I feel like I am forcing myself to make conversation and it's very unsmooth.
