You're trying to go too far in the "cocky asshole" direction and being offensive. And, you're not congruent.
Try to have a positive social interaction with at least one stranger a day. Desired outcome: they leave with a smile on their face. Keep up the small talk with cashiers.
Toastmasters and dance are great. I'd also suggest doing a beginners improv class or two (as in a course several weeks long), as it will loosen you up and give you momentum. Important: don't worry about gaming at these events. Treat them as opportunities to meet activity partners and make new friends. Do your gaming elsewhere.
And take a day off every week to relax and do something different. You're pushing yourself out of your comfort zone, do take some time off to relax.
