Shy people need love too. With you by his side to give him confidence he might be able to take on the world. Tell him how attractive he is, how funny, how wonderful, and take him places where he will be comfortable, like a friend's house with just a couple people there, or your family's house, not for a fancy dinner, but just to eat pizza and hang out. The effort you make could change his life. Shy people just don't trust as much, maybe they've been hurt too many times, so being someone he can rely upon, who's honest, who's kind and understanding, not confused and resentful, will show him and make him feel there is a reason to get out there and live.
But he may have other problems too, things that he needs to work out on his own, or he might be in need of therapy. The book that helped me the most has little to do with social phobia, but a lot to do with everything that has led to me becoming and remaining shy. It might help him too, and even you.

If he doesn't like to be out in public, that's more than just being shy. I would say he may have some sort of disorder, maybe social anxiety disorder. Now if the case is he doesn't like to be out in public with you, it's time to dump him and find someone else.

Trust me let him go I was talking to a guy who was like him except he has no problem with being in public he suggested we go out on dates it's just that once in public he became shy. I decided to look over it but when we went on prom together he didnt want to do anything, dance, eat(I had to beg him to eat something), take pictures. You know how most people go out to eat after prom because the food at prom is usually nasty he did not even want to do that. So I went striaght home after prom it was terrible. He ruined my special night.

It sounds like you are pretty independent and do a lot of activities. Which is totally cool but if you are going to date a shy guy you may need to talk to him about compromises. Sometimes he gets out with you, sometimes you go out with your friends without him, and sometimes you hang out at home with him. Don't stop your life to suit him. Enjoy what you like to do and him as well. If he's not willing to make a compromise then you are probably too independent for him.

Hang out with him more. If he's used to being with you and getting to know you better, he won't have a problem going out in public with you and he won't be as shy.

It is normal for guys to be shy. If you like him than the other factors don't matter
