Do you guys have any tips

Well ever since I was growing up my dad didn’t like for me to go out have guy friends or wear shorts and not like the ones that show ur butt just simple shorts and stuff like that and now I’m 19 and cuz of the I’m really socially awkward I don’t really know how to talk to people especially guys I’ve never had a bf or a guy friend I probably haven’t talked to a guy I don’t work with in about 2 year and befor that I only talked to them for school so I’m kind of a really shy person so I guess I wanna know if u have any tips to be more confident people just tell be be more out there and don’t care so much but I just can’t seem to and it sucks cuz my brothers are normal cuz my dad wasn’t as strict on them they have all had girlfriends and stuff my brother even has sex in his room and my dad can hear and he lets it go and now when I leave for work he asks if I’m going to go see a guy he think I’m lying half the time which I’m not I wanted to move out but my friend wanted to stay at home with her parents and living with a stranger seems terrifying and it’s to expensive to live by yourself over here so any tips or tricks to be or just seem more confident plzzzz and thank you
