Answer

When I do something I haven't done for ages I say: 'I haven't done it for ages/a long time'; / 'It's been ages/a long time since I last did that'
When I meet someone I haven't seen for ages, I say: 'I haven't seen you for/in ages/a long time', 'It's been ages/a long time since I last saw her.
