Girls grow up faster than boys. And I think some of the guys are secretly jealous of what you two have together. They would never admit it and maybe they don't even know it consciously, but your life is the life they really want deep down inside. So, they are ignoring it, consciously or unconsciously.
I remember my nephew, he is about 40 - he never settled down - was out partying and drinking all the time, running around living the "good life". Well a couple of years ago, some of his married friends confronted him about his wild life - part of it was on facebook, that's how I knew the confrontation happened - and he denied tooth and nail that he wanted to settle down. He said he loved his freedom to do what he wanted, etc etc.
Well you know what - I think the confrontation did him good. About 6 months later, he started dating the sweetest girl, they got married a few month later. She already had a little boy and they are expecting another baby. He did a 180 turnaround about 6 months after that confrontation by his friends - even after living the playboy life for some 20 years. That tells me deep down inside he wanted a wife and family - but for some reason, he held on to his old partying ways far longer than most people do.
So, I bet Scott's friends start to come around in the not too distant future. I wouldn't worry too much about it, and I know you are not, but it has hurt your feelings and I think you just need to let is slide off your back. They are being juvenile and you know how sometimes guys can just be so inconsiderate. You'll see them in the future with wives and families and you and they will wonder how they ever thought "party time" was better than "family time"
