You do that because you ego is trying to protect you from possible embarassment.

To overcome this you should try to recognise you ego. This is my article about how to do that:

Egoic Mind

Then you can also try using some affirmations that you are very confident in meeting new people and you can visualise successfully meeting new people. This mental play will help you become stronger and more confident in real life situations.

Then what is left to do is to try responding to someone new trying to befriend you. You will notice that everything turned out to be great so your ego will get smaller because you will remove one limiting belief from your mind.

Hope that helps.
