I'm female but from a similar perspective.. It's been three years and counting (and not looking good this year either) since my last relationship-esque thing.. I don't miss being someone's girlfriend... I never quite liked being chattel, or having to take someone else's schedule into consideration when I want to do something (yes, I am selfish)
What I do miss, is intimacy, and while it' sbeen three years for sex too, sex and intimacy are two different things... I miss talking to someone til dawn... or just having my hair played with because it was there... or rubbing someone's shoulders because my hands needed something to do... I miss the closeness to someone... I'd agree with Kramus, it's the simple contact that I miss...
