I've gone through similar stuff dude, you'll read and watch alot of things that tell you just to get over it and go out there and attempt but I know its harder than that.
In terms of not having a gf or a K close... don't worry about it man, try not to dwell on it as it will happen, I know it will happen because your going down the right path because your on this forum. I guess you've read the game by neil strauss... if not pick that up as its the staple for this stuff.
To finalize though just take it steady, everything will come just attempt little things to start. Walk through your local town or supermarket and just say hello to everyone, not everyones a prick and you'll get some nice smiles which will help you.
Get out there bud and have fun, its not all serious and you don't have to get laid with every conversation with a girl.
hope this helps
