If you think your friends drop off the face of the planet when they get married, wait until they have kids. They'll leave the universe.
Honestly, this hasn't really been a problem for me. I was one of the last in my circle of friends to get married, but I stayed in contact with all the folks I valued. Now that I've got kids it's a lot harder to do since my priorities have shifted. I can't go for a beer after work like I would have a couple of years ago since I need to get home to help with dinner and bath time. And honestly I love those times and playing with Max in the 20 minutes between the end of dinner and the start of his bath are the best part of my day.
Perhaps your friends are having lots and lots of wild sex and don't have time for anything that doesn't involve shoving something into a moist orfice. And can you fault them for not giving you a call if that's the case?
