Single men over 30 generally don’t have available male friends to hang out with and much time to socialize.
I have a long term, ongoing thread about how my relationship as a 30+ never married man with my primary local social circle. I know you have added insight to this thread over time.
Yesterday, I was on my Instagram and saw a pregnancy announcement from an acquaintance's wife in my social circle. I don't particularly like her. I find it annoying to be around her the 1-2 times a year I ever randomly see her in person. Right now, there are 3 women from my local area social...

As a never married, childless 30+ man, it does become difficult to see a lot of friends on a regular basis. Most are married men and the majority of married men are married men with children under 18 living at home. The married men with children 10 and under are the least available.
Older, childless married men are more available but even they aren't very available.
I have enough friends that I can see my friends on an irregular basis and still see enough people to have an adequate social life. I'm more focused on my dating than on being with my male friends.
When I think of social circle, I think of young people, say fifteen to 25 years old, unmarried people with loads of free time and the freedom to be out late at night or hang out for hours on end.
That's the best time in one's life for that sort of thing.
I moved to my current city in my late 20s and made some friends with people slightly younger than I was who were unmarried and childless. I had a little bit of a social circle going on in my late 20s/early 30s but it quickly dissipated once more relationships got serious and marriage proposals were made. This was happening when I was in my early 30s so I did better than many males with this.
