I reccomend a little time in the service industry to anyone trying to learn this.
How much money you make(tips) are a direct correlation to hom well you work the people, and how much they like you.
You also learn to read people quickly, and develop rapport instantly.
At first, I put this aside, to learn routines and such in the community. It later dawned on me, I was not using one of the things I developed that had made me successful. Now, I'm a total smart arse in sets

I bartended at college bars/neighborhood bars/a gay bar for about 5 years, sold cars for a year, then I was a wine steward at a 4.5 star restaurant in uptown for 2 years, so I have that on lock. I'm pretty much a politician in my current profession with a federal agency, so telling senators and congressmen how its going to be, with a smile, is my forte. I guess I need to embrace this and run with it while killing the self-doubt and talk to women the same way i talk to people at work.
edit: now that I think about it, every time I end up essentially fighting/fucking withh a girl, we end up hittin' tha skins. Last night a girl had a double jointed thumbs, we ended up with me comparing her to a Labrador with webbed paws (but you can still be my bitch, lol), then a BJ on the patio at her friend's house...lol. She was a bad ass girl, who loves to fuck with people and be a tacky bitch, I love it.
