It's a tough situation. It's so hard not to worry about these type things.
I personally believe that when kids are in high school they should be in control of making their own social plans. I find it awkward when other parents reach out to me about getting our boys together -- I'm not saying that's the case for you, but there have been a few situations where my boys don't want to hang out with the kids and then I'm put in an awkward position. I've started redirecting them to have their kids reach out to my boys directly.
Have you talked to him about it? Would he consider joining some clubs that give him exposure to meeting other kids with similar interests?
If he's happy just having casual friends, that's ok too.
