Are you and your group of friends locally-based--meaning that most are from the same general region of the state or country? If most haven't strayed in locale or interest since college, then this is more likely than what I've seen with my friends, some of whom are all over the world now.

DeltAlum referred to the fact that couples don't socialize as a unit if people are moving around all the time. Most people aren't attached to their hometown or even home state as much as our grandparents were, and as a result, different levels of cohesion between social groups occurs. You don't have that group of hometown or college buds to fall back on, because everyone's scattered.
