People are different and what is easy for some, might be difficult for others. One thing which is special about social skills is, that most people who are "naturally" good in it just do this unconsciously. E.g. people who don't know how to read body language still do it. For them it manifest in a "feeling". Like "i like this guy" or "this situation is uncomfortable". But s.o. who learned it can do more. Say you are in a job interview and after answering a question you see the interviewer touching his mouth and crossing his arms. You know he didn't like the answer and you know why your feeling uncomfortable (It's not going well). You can also make people like you, by mirroring their body language. People usally take a defensive posture (crossing arms/legs, holding a glass with both hands, etc.), when talking with s.o. they don't know well. Make them comfortable by doing s.th. similiar. Later on you can open your posture (e.g. unfolding your crossed arms and showing your palms) and they will naturally follow you. (called "pacing and leading" and often used by psychologists). Also mention that most people think doing this is immoral per se, but i think it depends for what you use it. If you do it to make a woman feel comfortable, where is the difference in beeing a gentleman? I really hate all salesman from the depth of my hearth though (i recognize their shady tricks) TLDR If you somehow missed the opportuinity to learn that irl, i recommends study a bit psychology. Watching a tv show like "how i met your mam" might also be a good idea, because it probably even influcend the unwritten rules in real society. If this question was a camouflaged "How to lay girls?" then there is always the guide by ross jeffries. But this is really shady and had those people invested a tiny amount of their effort in analysing their own inferiority complexes, they would be probably happier...
