I literally mentioned how he's like a brother to me in the beginning of my post.
I am not clingy at all, nor am I creep. I am very social, and I also enjoy my alone time as well. He is a very close friend and we haven't been able to see each other in awhile. We had made plans; plans initially made by him. Then at the last minute he cancelled on me, and I felt the reason was just odd.
Perhaps the bolded is the root of the problem. It seems that the relationship is much more close from your point of view than from his. Your insistence that the relationship you once had continue the same way since his marriage is unrealistic. Deal with it. Start spending more time with those others with whom you are "very social."
My husband and I both love doing boys nights/girls nights. One of my best friends doesn't get it. She wants us to all hang out. I tried to arrange with her a girls trip, she wanted to do a couples trip and thought I was nuts for just wanting girls.
Everyone is different. Just because they like to do stuff as a couple isn't bad. If you notice controlling behavior or abuse that is one thing. However, just because they would prefer to do stuff together? You're over thinking.

Once a woman enters a man's life, things change. And non-blood related brothers may just fade.

I am glad it somewhat got resolved. I don't think you are clingy or needy - seems his wife is clingy and needy and he just caves to avoid trouble. Seems like the friend is pu..y whipped and lost his self identity. Nothing really you can do.
Calling out the wife could have backfired but luckily it did not.
Does it not seem odd that he didn't call you at that point? I mean, the night was young and he knew you wanted to hang out.
It did seem odd to me. My guess is he didn't want to make waves with the wife since he left. He told me it bothered her that he didn't want to be there. I tried to not let it ruin the rest of the night. All in all, I was able to enjoy my Friday. I made some air-popped popcorn and watched a movie with the dog.
