It's a good thing to hang back a while and get a feel for new people before you open up.
Not necessarily, I find with being open and confident towards meeting new people you create a good gateway to making friends, as they see how approachable and interesting you are. I have no fear of walking into a crowded room anymore because I make it my absolute priority to meet someone new, as then you will seem like someone worth approaching by someone else.

Smile and the world smiles with you, so to speak.
