What I used to do a lot and still do on occasion while practicing... (When I practice, I'll lay down a rhythm and loop it)
I'll mix in the hooks of songs with similar melodies of the rhythm I laid down. You will be amazed at how much this will refine your ear.
In other words... Learn to play teases.

FWIW, the easiest way, in my opinion, to write songs and melodies is to sit down with your instrument and try to play something you love by ear. If you're at all competent and have a rudimentary grasp of scales, you'll play something that's in the ballpark, but not exactly right. Then the little light bulb goes off and you take it off in your own direction.
