Most of the 20s social activities are there to find mates. In our 30s an increasing number no longer need to do this, and another number don't have the time anyway due to work or family.
In our 20s we still have our school friends, and they introduce us to their friends. We study and make friends. They introduce us to their friends. There's always a few parties. I'm those parties mostly everyone is looking for a boyfriend or girlfriend. We're in the same boat. We have common aims.
In our 30s, those school friends have largely disappeared. We stop studying and stop meeting fellow students. The parties dry up: more and more of those people now have found someone and find no need to "party".
You have your workplace. But if you're a manager your friends are often brown-nosing. And if you're not, office or company politics may interfere. And those left may need to rush back to look after their kids anyway.
The best thing I've found is volunteering. You meet new people, you form new friendships, you learn new skills, you help your community, your week now probably involves at least a little more exercise.
