when you have a physical desire for sex (but not like it used to be) but the desire for romance and love is woefully lacking. in other words, lots of "falling in love"(fwiw) before but not any more. no more crushes, hardly anyone really "does it to you". if it happens, its very rare. its like the "fantasy" part is totally replaced by a stoic reality, you occasionally want sex but there's no excitement attached to it

low testosterone, apathy, aging, life lessons?
Well, lowered testosterone and life lessons are natural parts of aging, so those three go together. I'm not sure how old you are, but I'd think any 40 or 50 year old who "falls in love" as easily and often as a teenager is kind of pathetic. It's normal for that to be different. Sad that there's no excitement with sex, though. That part makes me think you're not with the right person.
If you've been going through surgery/illness you libido is going to take a backseat to all the other stuff your body is having to handle.

It's called getting jaded and a lot of rejection will do it to you. I used to be a ridiculous hopeless romantic.
It's like how others here chase after a passionate sexual relationship and for the one person they can't live without, I actively try to avoid that situation.
It's cost me a lot more pain than joy and it's not even close. I'm very practical when it comes to romance. I can BS like I'm really into it though.
