For the most part, we don't have a lot of singles that we hang out with anymore. Not by intent... but more just by who we have the most in common with anymore. We have two other couples, both with kids about the same age as ours, and the gettogethers tend to be a blast. But even with them, it's more on the level of once a month or once every two months, mainly because of schedules and affordability (budgets certainly play a factor for all of us).
My best friend from HS and I have kept in touch and go out every so often, but it had been about 2-2 & 1/2 years since we had the opportunity to get together until we did it just a couple weeks ago. He's getting married this summer, and I'll be in the wedding. I'll probably try and include them in some of our couple get-togethers. Interesting to see how our lives have changed over the years. And yet... the other couples we hang out with, I met three of them over 20 years ago. We've just stayed great friends over time, and that translated into our married lives. So it's more than just being married, I think... it's the familiarity of the people you're around as well, and being comfortable with them.
