I went through an entire evening outing and did not drop the ball once socially- in every event, I successfully carried out all the steps of social interaction, from perfectly(or so I’d like to think) mimicking empathy, adopting correct facial expressions and words. I’d like to think that this is a huge step forward in my social training. One of the people that I went on an outing with even commented that he thought my social skills were improving greatly.
Awesome! If what you’re dealing with is social anxiety, then you might find this blogpost helpful (I know I did). It sounds like it may be something more serious; if so, all the more reason for congratulations!

I have to admit, this is pretty damn impressive, no matter how basic people seem to think those skills should be.
Thanks a lot. I really appreciated that comment.
