I’m so sure I’ll fail in most social settings I’ve sort of just treated it like a game. I get as creative as can without being out right offensive. I only stop talking when I think I’m annoying the other person. This hasn’t actually helped with anything other than people perceive me as being more confident but, it’s really the opposite. It’s like jumping into a ice cold pool in winter just to experience it even if you know it’s going to be unpleasant.
