Looking back, I'm not sure why It never happened.. I am painfully shy but I was also very popular in my late teens to my mid twenties. Mostly with other dudes at the ski resorts though, I had women flirt with me a lot back then but I'd stupidly grin and look for a exit due to my fear of talking to women. Only time I could ever follow through with women is when I was completely loaded..

My 23 year old Nephew has more dating experience than I do.
Get counseling to help you with your fear of talking to women.

I know quite a few people who didn't begin dating until after college, closer to their mid-20's. It's not a big deal, OP. Don't blow it up into a huge thing in your mind. Just move forward with your life.

"I see twenty something couples everywhere. I see a twenty something guy with a nice twentyish young women. I think those years slipped right by for me. Why should I continue another 20+ years alone?" I got that quote from someone, he made perfect sense
