FWIW I think it is actually a valuable social skill to be encouraged to ask someone out to prom. A lot of people don't have many similar experiences throughout their lives.
I've never been with anyone in my life. I highly doubt it has to do with not going to a dumb party though.
You might consider what's driving you to put people down who are having fun
I don't put anyone down just because I think a party is lame dude. They can do whatever they want, I can't stop them.
When you call an event where kids get together to celebrate the end of high school "frivolous" and "dumb," it really comes across as putting other people down.
