Long lost friends

I am mid 30's and for a while I have really missed some of my friends. Specifically collage friends and even prior to that.
I know it's normal to loose touch with those groups of people but a lot of our parents were friends too so they were a big part of my life.
Some of us went to uni together and even moved into to flat/house shares once we got older. So basically we were all very tight.

But, now that a lot of them are married, have kids, have moved out of the area etc it feels so lonely. I know life changes and of course I understand that. But I miss that closeness so much.
If I don't call or text any of them then I never hear back from any of them.
But... If I do reach out to them they always respond enthusiastically but then never follow up with anything.
I already know what everyone will say on here as it's obvious that they really don't give a shit..! I need to move on and get over it. I just can't believe they're so fickle.
I do have one of my oldest friends who I speak to often but she's overseas so obviously limits our communication.
Do long term friendships not mean anything anymore?
