How can we disagree?

I always remember my first singles club (fresh into divorce) I told committe chair that a new face needed a friendly chat to welcome them - he said it wasn't his job! So I thought and figured he was in part right - I was a menber and as such it was my club and so I went over and chatted (up) the young lass. From then on I made it a self appointed task and I got first call on any new face and made friends (of either gender) that way. The side effect? A healthy boost in the self-worth dept long flattened by a bad marriage.

I think there are a lot of similarly minded people here.
