Recently, I have been visiting a friend who studies abroad. She was organizing a student trip while I was there, so she offered for me to come along even though I am not a student. All participants were from different countries, which was great for me - for some reason, it is so much easier for me to communicate with people in English (even though it is not my native language and I obviously don't speak it perfectly).
Anyway. I was surprised about how easily I connected with people and even made some friends. We hung out in our free time together, not just during the mandatory group activities.
When they had to leave, we planned on keeping in touch online and maybe visit some time, as we all like to travel.
This has been over a month ago now and I haven't gotten a reply from two of those people, which I don't understand. We had a really good time together and talked so much, but when the trip was over, it seems like it just ended. I mean, they didn't _have_ to hang out with me. There were lots of other people around. Also, I was with that friend I already knew, so they can't have just included me because of courtesy.
Do you know situations like this? I was really happy about having found some friends and not hearing back from most of them is kinda dragging me down right now.
