Can someone recommend a book about...

How to deal with people...

How to like people...

How to not want to smack people...

I've come to the conclusion that I simply don't like that many people.

I do for a certain period of time, but after that I find them boring, disappointing, etc. & then I find myself hoping to God they don't text me.

Obviously, the problem is me so I'm looking for a book on how to learn to like people.

How to appreciate them.

How to handle them.

Things like that.

Can anyone help me out?

You got that very very right. However you are focusing on external ( others ) not internal:

How do I appreaciate myself etc.

"I do for a certain period of time, but after that I find them boring, disappointing, etc. & then I find myself hoping to God they don't text me."

... maybe they are boring and disappointing BUT you choose them. Also you might increase the value of the person but not on real things ( when it's not there ).

I would say to pay attention more on the internal: what can I ( where I is you ) do to ... ?
