You obviously have real social problems with interacting. I would look at these issues. Unless you are comfortable with yourself then you are never going to attract a member of the opposite sex. Maybe join some groups, a dance class could be good and could get used to being close to a woman, especially in a platonic way.
Women want to be with someone interesting and fun, not just someone who is good looking. (not true for all, but most) Think about the qualities you would like in a woman, think about building up friendships. Stop thinking about sex, it will come but only when you are comfortable with yourself. Women don't like men who are just eager for sex, they don't want to be used.
If you are truly desperate for sex and can't get it out of your head then maybe a trip to Nevada wouldn't go a miss. Once maybe you've got that initial issue out the way you will be able to relax. But I'm not sure this would work either. Once you've had sex, you will want it again and unless you're going to visit prostitutes a lot, then you really need to deal with the real issues you are having that make you unable to approach women.
Have you considered going to a councillor and talking your problems through. Maybe you could see someone professionally who can help you with the issues of your shyness.
I think I already mentioned I have 3 girls who are my friends. I took one of them out to an event with one of them by myself. I actually convinced her go, picked her up and then took her around the place. I usually don't have too much problem talking to these girls or others after we INITIAL conversation/understanding. Funny thing is most people I know, including girls, don't believe me when I say I am nervous around people!

I don't know how much more comfortable I can get with myself. Dance class might be a good idea, but I just get nervous thinking about meeting stranger and especially dancing with them. I very much hate embarrassment, I try avoid such situation as much as possible. I might talk to therapist someday, but I don't except much out of them.

That's just my two cents from the little i know of the bdsm terms.
I'm also slightly confused as to why this is in the Relationships forum when you say you don't want a relationship. Though this can be ignored it's just my curiosity speaking. Maybe you could get more feedback in the Sexual Dysfunctions Forum?
I would actually prefer a girl who leads and of course is attractive. But I don't think I want to be dominated, like bdsm tied up and watch not! Honestly, I would prefer to remain a shy person and let other people take the lead. But so far I never been asked out by a girl

As for why I posted here, I don't see being a virgin or shyness as being a sexual dysfunction. I am pretty sure if a hot girl gave me full permission to have sex with her I could get it up and do it!
