I wanted to list some of my recent successes here. This isn't bragging, but more of a "you could do this too" post. Everyone on here can do this if you work at it like I did. Go back and read my first few posts on the forum back in January or whenever it was 
#1 - I met this girl at a bar, she was cool and I got her #. Turns out she was moving away in a week, and she invited me to her leaving party at a bar near here. I walked into the bar alone and saw 30 people sitting at a long table all talking away. This would have been terrifying before. Literally unthinkable. I coolly pulled up a chair, introduced myself to the people around me, started talking, and had a great night with much talking and dancing and ending with stealing a kiss from the girl
#2 - A Friend had a party the other night at his house, and I went. It was the first party I had been to since I solved my social anxiety. Immediately when I walked in, I noticed how everyone was standing in little groups that knew each ohter. No one was talking to other people from other groups! I became the social lubricant, moving from group to group, having fun, bringing good cheer!
#3 - This one is the most crazy. Today I saw some cute girls on the street, and I stopped them COMPLETELY RANDOMLY and we started talking. We talked for 10 min or so. I took their ph# and called them later on in the evening, and they met me and my friends at a bar. We proceeded to have a fun night, they were really fun girls. We'll definitely go out with them again.
The analytical among you will realize the common trend in these threads. They all started with me talking to completely random strangers, and they all ended enjoyably. That's what I'm learning that social interaction is more and more about - it's fun and it almost always is enjoyable.
BTW, I just realized these stories all have to do with parties and bars and stuff. Lest you think alcohol is a crutch, I never have more than 2 drinks
