What you're describing is a classic INxx personality type (Myers-Briggs), meaning that you're Introverted and iNtuitive (daydreaming/fantasizing). There's nothing wrong with being this way (or at least I hope not, as I'm also an INxx). However, what you're describing has to do with is a social barrier, a shield if you will.
Basically, you're very capable of having many friends, it's just that you've set up a barrier to prevent yourself from being comfortable in social situations. Social Anxiety disorder is a crock if you ask me, and can almost always be "cured" by taking anti-depressants. If you're not already taking them, go see a doctor.
Anyway, without guesstimating too much, I'm imagining that you had some form of social trauma in the past, which is now causing you to feel uncomfortable opening up to people. As soon as you find out what's causing your barrier to exist, you can shed it, making you able to enjoy spending time outside of your inner mind.

I can't think of anything better to say then what Soleq said...
I'm usually pretty shy and tounge twisted too but I have found that the more I push my personal boundries and push past it the easier it gets. It's really a matter of will power and being willing to look like a dork. You already feel as if you look that way right? So it really can't get any worse.
