Let me propose to play multiplayer games and make friends to ev1 who is friendly (there's a little "+" next to the names for that purpose).
Play matches, strokeplay, blitz and skin to your liking, think of a good time & good company rather than of scores or winning. Do your best to finish the games - quitters have no friends.
Avoid challenges - money spoils friendliness.
Eventually, you'll have a choice of friends to chose for games from the list.
