This is a common perception but you never know, your shyness may have saved you some real misery. You could be paying child support!
Grass is always greener on the other side. While in general being shy is no picnic, I think the solitude of spending time alone is underrated.
I think if you've become more confident and more mature, there is no reason your shyness can't be overcome as well. Take it slow and enjoy the ride, you sound like you are in better shape than I am on this front!
