I don't know about a miracle cure, but forcing yourself to go outside your comfort zone can really help, especially once you realise it is not as bad as you might think :)

Introversion does not need a cure! It's a way of being that has no negative side effects. I might recommend the book Party of One: The Loner's Manifesto.

What horrid side effects? If you find that you feel drained a lot, set aside more time for yourself. If you feel lonely, try to find a good (but small) group of friends (or friend). If you're depressed, it might help to see a psychiatrist.
-
Yes! Spend some time with boorish, grandiose and intrusive extroverts. You'll find a new appreciation for quiet again! ;-)

If you really do want to try to be a more social, extroverted person, then I suggest that you give it a try. Honestly, I tried for about three years, and couldn't keep it up, it just wasn't me. It wasn't until just this past year that I really was a more introverted and introspective type of person. I was disappointed at first, but I think you need to learn to figure out who you are and try to make it work for you. I mean, I know that I'm not a bad person, I felt guilty about it for a long time. But the main thing is that I earn peoples' respect because even if I don't get close to them I am always polite and kind to them. But, I think if you're really determined then you ought to give it a try, but go into it with an open mind, don't expect everything to change overnight, but, like others said, by going outside your comfort zone, you can discover a lot about yourself.

I find the answer to be fairly simple - Kill yourself, and save everyone else the trouble of having to deal with your ignorance.

humans are social creatures. but everybody has somebody and if you dont and you want to fix that its the easiest thing to do. everyones scared of "failure" when trying to connect to others. but we all have a fucking lot in common and theres nothing to be scared of long term... everything you did the first time was a failure. first time you tried to eat it was all over your face, first time you ried to walk you fell on your ass, first time you made a friend i guarentee it was a little weird but soon it was the easiest thing ever. But as we get older we tend to think: if i might fail then whats the point of trying at all? you just have to learn not to be scared of your failures and if you do fail then do it with bravado. admit it happily and learn from it. or else die alone in a hole. The best way to learn how to do something is to believe you allready know how to. then just do it. its really that simple.
