Kids opened up things for my wife and I. Between little league, school, etc we expanded our social network pretty substantially.
One nice thing is that everyone does something else. It's exhausting to be surrounded by geeks. I have beers every few weeks with a locomotive engineer, a teacher and a dentist. We cannot talk work, because none of us know anything about what each other does.

I'm of the opinion that humans crave to solve problems in one form or another. That can be in business, family, etc. In tech we solve physical problems. A mother or father solves the even more complicated problem of how to raise a child. It is a life changing event.
So by being so successful you have conquered many problems. But also taken away a necessary source of well being. It's time for a challenge.
(My wife and I are trying for kids right now and sometimes I wonder if that's the "complex in a good way" thing that I'm anticipating...)
