This is totally not uncommon! I didn't really date until I came to college and even then, I don't know if you'd really call it dating, it was more hanging out with guys. I would use your formals/social events as great ways to make yourself have a date. Its one of those times where people don't usually expect it to go anywhere(but sometimes they are pleasntly suprised) and its way less awkward than other first dates. Plus if you ask someone who you know has friends that are going that'll help too. I loved all the girls in my chapter and usually hung out the ones who's dates were in the same fraternity as my date so they'd feel more comfortable.
I also don't like to ask guys out, but there was a formal that I decided to go to at the last minute and i just asked this guy (we'd only spoken like once or twice) and it was one of the most fun nights ever!!! We never went out again, but it was a great experience.
