Felt the same in Ohio. I'm polish.

Spent 6 months at Ohio State as exchange student and I loved it and hated it.

I remember once being asked how was I and me answering honestly, just for an american friend to reprimend me on actually answering.

I was like, "why the hell you asking how am I if you don't care?".

Got to admit though no place is easier to make friends than US. This excess talking can often lay fertile ground to deeper connection that is harder to find elsewhere.
