 Well it sounds like you can talk to your friends girlfriends therefore other girls shouldnt be a problem. You should never fall for friends girlfriends though, that is just a line that you shouldnt cross.
There is plenty of people in this world that is to shy to initiate conversation with the other sex, believe me it is far more common than you would think!
You just need to build up your confidence. Start with your appearance and dress in ways that make you feel good about yourself. Have a haircut make sure you smell nice. Just small things to make you feel good enough.
Next step is to practice in front of a mirror what you would say to a girl and how you would introduce yourself. Keep practicing until you feel confident enough that you would be able to do it face to face with a girl. Really when you think about it talking to someone is not all that scary after you get past your nerves.
Then after that join some classes and clubs where it would give you a chance to meet people your own age. Not only that but it will give you something to do and make you feel like you have achieved something, this alone will give you more confidence.
You need to believe in yourself and tell yourself you can be whoever you want to be. Dont give up keep trying. Goodluck.
