Horses for courses, I guess.
Sex isn't about love or expression for me, it's a physical act that feels good. Since we are talking about no longer enjoying the feeling it's easier to give up.
I suppose everyone has their own take on it. It's not something I'd share with a gal I don't love, nowadays -- I tried that for myself when I was younger and just don't feel the same intensity. I can jack off and get the same end result. What makes lovemaking special to me is the gal with whom I'm sharing the moment, any more.
