As a mother of two boys, I totally understand where you are coming from. We are TTC at the moment and I'd love to have a girl after two boys too, but I dont expect it. Id love another boy or a girl equally so in the end it doesnt really matter, but I do understand the longing to have a girl to be able to do girly things, have pink and dolls around the house. I think most mothers do want a daughter because we are girls ourselves.
I wont lie, I was initally disappointed that DS2 was a boy and I too was worried that Id be distant from him, but once I laid eyes on him I was in love and I wouldnt have it any other way. In fact, I have always smothered DS2 in kisses and cuddles and we are very close now.
Im sure you would not be distant from your son if you had another, but that being said, I would not TTC unless you want a baby, not just a girl because even with swaying you are not guaranteed a girl (we swayed strongly for a girl with DS2 but Im glad it didnt work, lol).
