Speaking from a male perspective. I've had sex without love and physically it was great, but with no real emotional side other than lust it only fulfills the urge. Which is not necessarily a bad thing, but in the long term it ends up feeling empty. I've had love without sex, and you can love someone to death but without sex it ends up being passionless and frustrating as hell because your physical needs aren't being met. And in alot of ways it is worse than the other scenario because you start thinking about cheating or leaving and it tears you up.
However I doubt it's too much different for women, my wife has had similar experiences to mine and would agree with what I just said. You need both and when one is missing you definitely feel it.
