directness
My thought is - It's always hard to combine directness with passiveness. If you initiate (like you did) then those who you meet tend to be responsive (and therefore not write back) and reinforce your role as the initiator; just like someone who is always passive tends to have interactions with people who are initiators.
I generally felt that it was in the Nicaraguan character / personal strategy in relations, to be passive initially, so you seem like a cultural combination - western assertive then Nicaraguan passive - fascinating!
I don't know if that makes any sense though or has any truth to it ;)
