Indeed, wishing is not enough. It requires hard work.

Better take up that hard work then, because this response doesn't really signal "social skills".

I was talking about mental health issues (from genetic stuff like autism to PTSD and social anxiety) that prevent those social skills from developing, regardless of work (any more than someone with depression can just "work" on being happier).

I know exactly what you were talking about, because my social skills are amazing. And my response is the same - hard work.
