Please suggest me a book(s) on improving social skills, flirting, conversations, charisma, and non-verbal communication.

Hello there, at the ripe age of 36, I'm coming out of my shell and now I want to develop skills that make me comfortable in social situations. There are components of social anxiety and lack of social skills which inhibit my ability to connect with people (socially or romantically). I have a handful of friends and a girlfriend which I'm unable to crack how I ended up with.

I know the skills I want to build is a tall order, but I just need a book(s) that can give me a frame of reference to operate within so that I'm mentally at ease and can interact appropriately without the internal chatter such as "I don't belong here," "Do they find me annoying?" "Am I taking too much space?," and so on. Thank you so much!
