Has anyone ever been lucky finding long term friendships here

? I feel like it’s difficult to do so because 1) Time differences and 2) Busy schedules.

But personally in my opinion if someone cares enough they would go out of their own way to communicate/check in even when they’re busy.

On a side note, there are also a lot of weird people on this app. I think that’s one of the main factors why people end up deleting the app leaving the decent people behind (by this I mean those who they actually had great conversations with).

Another thing... please do not instantly think a person has other intentions than making friends/language exchange right from the get-go. I’ve seen it happen and I find it ridiculous. Most of the time someone being nice can be taken the wrong way.

Anyways, I’m up for conversation. But if you’d like to talk to me please be as invested as I am because no one likes to waste their time.

Drop the mic.

    그것도 나라마다 좀 차이는 있긴 하던데,웬만하면 하루 이틀안에 답장을 안 주면 그 건은 틀렸다고 보는 게.. 예의가 없거나,(대놓고 무시하는 경우)아니면 그 정도 바쁘면 솔직히 언어교환하기 곤란함

    정말 공감합니다. 그래서 되도록 시차가 비슷한 국가의 사람과 친분을 쌓는게 좋겠더라구요. 친분이 오래 유지 안 되는 큰 이유는, 이 app이 언어교환의 취지를 바탕으로 친구를 만드는 것인데, 다른 나라 언어를 진지하게 공부하면서 이 app을 쓰는 분들이 많지 않은것 같더라구요. 그래서 동기부여가 크게 되지 않는 것도 있는 거 같아요. 진지하게 서로 삶을 공유했는데 연락이 금방 시들해지면 정말 실망스러울 때가 많아요ㅠㅠ

    I totally agree with you. Haha, plus, I guess everyone here got to have some experiences to come across some 거짓말쟁이s, sadly. :/

    It's really difficult for all these reasons but I'm still talking with a friend that I met here 4 years ago. I hang out with her every time I went in South Korea, share diner with her parents and recently she travelled in France with her parents, so we met again, in Paris this time and travelled in an other french city together =)

    @Jenn that’s right. It’s nice to build strong connections and relationships with people from other countries because then you can visit each other/introduce local places as well as culture
