Yeah it sounds as if you're shy. Try exercise and or joining some group activities so you can gain confidence and feel more comfortable in social settings. Some people drink alcohol or use coke to overcome this type of "social anxiety." If you're shy it just takes practice in social settings to get used to them. Maybe try an acting class or get involved in a team sport. Don't wimp out and take drugs if you don't really need them. Be a man.
