Shyness stems from your own self consciensness. Possibly low self asteem. I grew up painfully shy. After seeing a shrink for a couple of years for other issues, I learned of my own lowered self asteem. Learned then to view myself differently. Then eventually overcame my shyness. I'm not saying run out and see a shrink, that happened to work for me and highlighted issues in me that I didn't even know existed. It looks like there are places on line here to look at as well. I believe shyness is linked to self perception. You may also look into taking a public speaking course. I never could, nor could I now, but I have heard of people really coming out of their shell after taking it. Good luck.

Very good answer. But, I found out that just making a general comment, say when your in line for something or waiting for something might work and you can pick the person who answered you back!

I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL! I sit by myself because I'm shy. Well I lied. I sit by myself because my pod has a bunch of guys in it.

Well, I'm shy like you too... But try to talk more, when you meet people, don't put your head down, if you meet your friends, at least say "hi" to them... Or maybe you could ask them to help you. :) Don't avoid any thing that you get scared of, the more you face them, the more confident you will get... GOOD LUCK!

Take a deep breath and acts as if you are excited  about something and talk to them as if you miss them and haven't talk to them for ages
