Two simple things have changed my social life by giving me confidence, you can do it too! Lifting and partying... let me explain. I have been lifting for a solid year now, and i have put on nearly 60 pounds of muscle. Lifting and exercise in general will greatly boost your confidence. As far as partying goes, you DONT have to drink if you dont want to (i usually dont). Just show up! Surround yourself with lots of people. Sure the first hour or so is scary, so go with a friend. You dont even have to start conversations, just stand and wait, people will come to you. I went to a party last weekend, i didnt drink or start any conversations, but i still walked away with 7 girls phone numbers. I didnt even ask for phone numbers they just took my phone and stored their numbers for me. The great thing about parties is that most people do drink, so if you have an awkward moment, they wont remember or care. The key is putting yourself in social situations and pushing your comfort zone. At first it is difficult, but its the only way you can overcome your SA. and believe me it is well worth it.
