Pine for a girl (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

miss

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'pine for' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a girl' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for miss that I've seen before include "Single girl" , "Fail to meet - girl" , "maiden" , "Teacher" , "state" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Independent.
