When you say "extricate" yourself...that sounds like you are in a circle you want to leave.
To broaden your circles....is to make the effort to start mixing in different ones than you are now in. There are many ways to do that....and you can effectively do it totally away from the ones you are now in....
Find a club, find a hobby you share with others, find a church group (they are very welcoming to new people), find a new sport, find a new skill (take up painting, or golf, or table tennis, or pool, or swimming, etc.)....and you will find a whole new group of people. Also you can volunteer for hospitals, red cross, etc...each place you will make new friends.
So think through your interests and choose some that your present group would have no interest in.....you have to reach out and get to know people...show an interest in them....and they will return it.
I just moved to a new state, knew almost no one....but now have a church with a lot of church friends. have met people in different areas...it is not that hard to do. I always recommend a church because you will find people of your age group who will welcome you. A great place to start.

Mabye join some clubs. Do you golf or play tennis. Try joining a social sport and even if your not very good at it, it doesnt matter. Go and try to find something to join that has men your age and that will help your social life. Hope this helps=)

join some new clubs, or classes...like cooking, or pottery, dancing, art, or try the gym. join church activities, do you have a job, if so ask some co-workers out, like if they all want to go to a movie or for a drink, or pizza. you could get to know people online, but be careful, there are alot of crazies out there. or you could volunteer somewhere, i'm sure you would meet people that way.

Volunteering at a hospital will help you broaden your horizens. Volunteering your time anywhere will get you out and about.
