I'm not a real historian, just a history teacher, but I think I can kind of answer this.

When America was first born there was a strong thought among the founding fathers to not go abroad looking for monsters to slay. A major part of their independence relied on them not getting involved with foreign affairs. As part of separating from Europe was separating from their problems as well.

Now there were a lot of American citizens that wanted to return the favor to France and fight the British. Especially because Britain had been stirring up trouble with the Native Americans in an effort to destroy the new country and regain the territory back. But it would have been a pointless fight. America didn't have nearly a good enough navy to send troops over to Europe in any meaningful way and it would have just provoked a much more powerful nation to attack them once again.

This is a real interesting article that goes far more in depth than I ever could. Hopefully this answer helped a little and hopefully I didn't make too many mistakes in my response.
