socialize :) go have fun, get outside, talk to people and listen too. follow your interests - find a group of people who share the same ones.

There is nothing wrong with being an introvert who likes their time and spends time thinking. But, I bet you'll surprise yourself the day you do meet your soul mate and how motivated you will be to do stuff, and bounce between intro/extro-vert. Do animals have these terms? I don't believe in putting ourselves in these boxes.
