I'm just like you. I had to force myself to "contribute" in class (I was scared that if I didn't, the teacher would do the job for me and pick on me.)
Eye contact feels unnatural to me and I also hate my voice, but I'm trying to get used to it.
Don't let other people make you feel as though there's something wrong with you. You are just the way you are. Just because you don't conform to their standards of what a person should act like, it doesn't mean that you "have to" change! There are quiet, shy people and there are loud, sociable people as well as those in between and just plain weird people. The more extroverted people tend to dominate, but don't let that get you down. I'm sure you're a great person as you are.
Quiet and shy.
