It's been some time since I have posted on the site... but I havnt been ignoring the game, I have been developing myself. My inital goal was to be able to simply start up a conversation with anyone... more specifically HB7+'s, well I have achieved that now (well almost any HB7+...) without the need for canned material

. But now my aspirations have developed!!!! I am after getting a few kiss closes.
MY QUESTION:
How do I get better rapport, and lead the conversation into the opportunity for a kiss close?
MY ISSUE:
After the opening (where I come accross as MR SOCIABLE) I try to make the transistion into MR COMFORTABLE... but I turn into MR BORING. Its alright for a short time but invetablly the conversation becomes stunted at best, boring as runner up or just becomes nothing!!!!
I've read the three levels of seduction are "sociable" "comfort" "seduction" and its learning to make a transistion from one to the next that is what makes a good PUA. So:
How do I improve my conversational abilities????? (What books can I read? sites can I visit? courses can I do?)
