Today, I managed to convince the girl of my dreams to stop being so shy, and put herself out there to get her crush to make a move. It worked. And yet as it turns out, I'm not her crush after all. FML

Maybe you should have taken some of your own advice and let her know you like her ?

Here's the skinny from somebody who has "been there, done that", OP. Stop wasting your time trying to make girls make the move on you because if it works, it works great - However, if you get a really shy girl you'll develop far too much of a connection to her with your time invested than she has developed with you. This is ok if the feeling is mutual but if it's not you'll be completely crushed by somebody that shouldn't mean much to you in the first place. Instead, PUT YOURSELF out there and make the move quickly. . .If she turns you down no harm done to you, AND, the added bonus of you not caring so much because you have no time invested. Now, I'm not saying go out there and ask every girl out on the street out just because the word know isn't as devastating as you think but I am saying you can't go out there putting all your time and effort into girls based off silly assumptions.

Maybe you should have confronted her in the first place!! Maybe you could have made it work. You never know till you try...but I guess you'll never know now...

Why wouldn't you just ask her out? why tell her put herself out there so he will make a move?

It's a common tactic for guys to make a girl ask them out, if done right it's a pretty bold move [much more bold than asking outright]. . But in this situation and based on the wording of the FML it just sounds like a kid with no confidence in himself whom is afraid of the word 'no'. . .Somebody who probably wasn't waiting for the girl to ask him out but waiting for a 100% reaffirmation that she wanted to be asked out in order to save himself embarrassment, look like the hero that brought the shy girl "out of her shell" and allow him to do the manly thing of asking her out. . All in one day!
