I feel like trying to get more friends is never really a bad thing. Especially for different types of issues, it's always good to have a lot of different perspectives to look at. For example, a problem you may be embarrassed or don't want to stress out your family with is often perfect for a friend. Or perhaps you need to vent on a particularly stressful day. If you ever run into trouble a friend may know someone or might be able to personally help you out on short notice. If they have similar interests you can hang out together at events that your spouse doesn't want to or doesn't have time for. They can help you choose gifts and etc.

Overall it's definitely not a bad thing to give it a try! Join a few clubs. Maybe there is a dad group that you can join? You can make new friends at work too and etc etc etc.
