I just thought about something. Me and my friend just mentioned that we commonly think that foreign friends write to us all the time in Facebook, and that it has to be because they are more social in real life and then also more social on the Internet.
In Sweden barely "hang out" in the same way anymore. For example, when school's out for the day everyone quickly dashes off to their homes, even though we all love each other as a great class. Why not just hang out for a bit? Just sit down and talk, chill out.
Also, it seems like all social meetings has to happen around some kind of errand or business. Like "do you want to take a coffee in town?", "no I don't have money", "ok, another day then" ... But why the coffee if no money? Why don't just meet up, walk and talk or just sit down somewhere..? Nowadays it seems like we always need to DO something!
For me, I gladly just hang out. I'm a social person, and I don't need to put a code name on spending time with friends!
