It's quite a long time since

Regarding the following question:

Fill the blank so that both the sentences will mean almost the same.

(A) I haven't seen you for a long time.
(B) It's [ ] a long time since I saw you last.

What do you think is the correct answer for it? I think that in a case like this, you usually use "quite," but is it the only answer for this question? Can there be any other choices? How about "for (a long time)"?

'For' doesn't work here. The first thing that comes to my mind is It's been a long t ime since I saw you last. CB
