Hmmm, when I played I made contact fairly aggressively but I don't expect you to check every turn to see if the AI has traded your contact information either. Plus, you don't have to immediately purchase available contacts to other civs, it's your choice.
So here is the rule. [I'll update the rules page.]
You can ignore another civ until they get in your face seeking to speak to you. However, as soon as you have a dialog with a civ, you must declare war with that civ by the end of the current turn.
