I used to be very shy as well. I changed my shyness by making a deliberate choice.
During the transition between school and university I realized that my shyness had been holding me back to some degree and I decided that it would be better if I was a more friendly and outgoing person.
So ... I told myself that was my goal. I set myself a little task: I was going to go and meet one new person every day. I went to university and introduced myself to everyone I could meet. I tried to interact a bit more ...
Now this was many years ago.
After some weeks or months it became easier. So now, I work in an Emergency Department. I meet a dozen or so new people every day! I have a bit of a knack to build a quick rapport and talk easily with these people.
I still have that same shy guy inside, but now there are layers and masks. I have my work-mode which makes it easy for me to interact with people. Even when I go to a party or meet people going out, I use these skills.
While I am still a little shy inside, nobody can tell. I appear very unshy.

Get socialized, do it online if you too shy, good to start building your self confidence. Beside what's wrong being shy ? We live in the same earth, breath the same air.

well i have been in the same position as you before. what i did was just slowly "worked my way out of it. I 1st started with small things like talking to people i like and just worked my way up until i got to doing big stuff.....like doing prefomences and other thing like that.
also try standing out. do something new like asking out someone that you like.
