We don't understand, nor can communicate with everything on our planet like plants, and animals, so why would we be able to communicate with a more advanced race?
I think they look at all the chaos going on, and the inability to communicate, even amoungst ourselves, and they take a pass.

So what sort of ET are you imagining? Some boring couch potato ET's that are not creative?
It can't be construed. There are NO other less advanced extraterrestrial civilizations. I'm not trying to be disrespectful or pick a fight. I used to have similar lines of thought about these aliens as well.
However, my profession has allowed me to come into direct intimate contact, with Generals, Admirals, high ranking military personnel, and other three letter organizations
It could be that the laws of the universe prevent high speed travel

why are humans so conceited as to think that intelligent life forms from places other than earth would want to come here and associate with us? Wat makes them think such people the slightest interest in us anyway? Do we really think we are somebody inter stellar travelers would want to know???????????
For all we know a few, some or many of them probably regard us as nothing more than a fly, a manifestation of evil itself, sheer pigs, nothing more than beasts of burden, slaves, cosmic rubbish, a failed experiment, a breed of animals they are experimenting with, grossly inferior to them and similar.
I would imagine most of them would want to stay well away from us out of fear of their lives. Its not like we are a peaceful bunch of people are we??
Do people ever think that some of these other life forms from places other than earth have been coming here for thousands of years, are here now but remain hidden in plain sight or hidden way out of sight.
Perhaps they don't interact with us because its against their ethics. Perhaps they stay away from us because they know that it would make us deviate from our own path.
Perhaps they walk among us and we don't even know it.
If you don't believe in aliens, then your not going to be looking out for them are you?
During WWII everyone was on the lookout for spies because everyone believed they existed and were likely around the next corner.
