You'll get use to it buddy
Most of it is talk but people tend to get busy and then forget about this - I myself am guilty of abandoning this site for a few weeks and popping back to check what's up.
I'm sure people do wanna meet up, it's just the whole scarce of 'meeting someone online for the first time and being with them for a good session of 'fake' pleasantness avoiding the awkward or desperate expressions of first-time interactions.'
I've met people online for 'couch-surfing' when I first arrived here too, and sometimes it kinda sucks to put up with someone you don't click with or would (,under normal circumstances; work, college etc. ,) get along with at all - and then to put with with that social shit after that.
I don't mean bad, there is a light. Keep at it.
Holla back.
