What I did to overcome my social fobias was joined my school's drama program. I got to perform on stage, which was and kind of still is a big fear to overcome. This, on top of getting a job where you're constantly dealing with many customers in person helps too, you can't be shy in this kind of setting.
Getting up and saying you're not going to be shy anymore is kind of a wacky way of doing things, you have to ease your way into it if you truely have social phobias. Ease yourself into it, getting a job is probobly the best route, but school performance is still another good path as well.
After all this is said and done, you wont be completely cured, but you'll definitely have an easier time getting to know people and talking to strangers, and even girls you like. This takes time, and I know being shy can be torture. Just keep your head up.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
