I don't know about the whole beer thing... You don't really sound like someone who's ever experienced alcohol and I'd hate to give you that advice and have it end up on CNN.

Anyways -- try starting small? Say hi to a random guy on the street -- walk past him and don't even wait for a response. Compliment someone. Do random things until you can build up the courage to join a club or to study with others.

You're not alone. I had a friend who would pick her nose when people tried to befriend her because she was scared of rejection ... Meaning she'd rather be rejected on her own superficial terms than on the basis more meaningful characteristics; i.e personality?
