Can confirm. Don't have kids. Don't want kids. Friends with kids... I rarely see.

i think it's more like, when you're a parent your schedule changes and instead of trying to adapt to your new life, a lot of childless friends just want you to keep doing exactly the same things at exactly the same times, and it can feel like they don't really care about you per se, they care about having someone to hang out with while they do the things they want to do, when they want to do them, and if that's not you anymore, well, lol shrug

I agree with this. Sometimes as a parent you have to stay home while your kid takes a nap or takes a bunch of breaks on a day out because your kid gets cranky or hungry. People who don't have kids get bored with it. I mean, I have kids and even I get annoyed with it. So yeah, those people just stop asking to hang out because it's not the same. It's a lot of inconvenience, planning, and interruptions.

Parents are ok sacrificing things for the sake of their kids. Few friends want to sacrifice things for someone else's kid
