I honestly don't enjoy hanging out with people who don't have kids anymore. Our lives have diverged so much that we rarely have much in common.

Yeah, there's really not much that a single 45-year old guy has in common with a 45-year old whose married with kids. Maybe on paper they may appear to have similar jobs, live in similar places, etc. but they are on vastly different life paths with completely different interests (personal, political, social, etc.).
If you look for the holes in the cheese you will find them.
Interesting conversations and connections are with those people who are different from yourself, not with those who share the same experience of everything.
Yes but if you talk to different people with kids you're mostly going to hear the same things over and over again.
If you focus on the differences that’s all you’ll see.
The opposite applies too, if you try hard enough you’ll find plenty of similarities with an Eskimo. We’re all just people in the end.
