Due to a bad upbringing and having High Functioning Autism, I’ve struggled to have socially-appropriate behaviors, which has led to me making A LOT of mistakes with women over the years, and it’s why I’m still single even at the age of 30. I know I’ll never be perfect, and my mentioned setbacks will always find some way to bite me in the ass at some point, but because I’ve consistently bettered myself after learning from my behavior problems the hard way, I have no desire to stop doing so, mainly because it’s helped me become gradually attractive to women. Rather than desperately seeking out women just so I can FINALLY experience romance, I’ve decided the best thing for me now is to simply work on my social skills with them by having friendly and meaningful conversations, both online and offline. While I’m sure this is a long-shot to mention, I’m hoping there are women from the Chicago area in this community, because I’d appreciate being able to have an offline relationship as well. If not, I’ll just go to places in my area so I can talk to them.

I’d suggest asking in the autism community as well as they might have some good suggestions

I’ll try that as well. Thanks!
are you talking about flirting or just people in general?
women don’t require extra special social skills nor will ‘practicing’ on them be some magic panacea for you.
just interact with people generally in chill environments and stop thinking about ‘winning’ or ‘losing’ people.
Be sure to understand that not all of us normies are honest and functional. If you have an experience with some girl and it doesn’t go right, be careful to not assume you failed. She might be awkward, manipulative, cruel, stupid, or somehow dysfunctional. Could be a combination of you and her.
