I heard that even "emotions" gets old.
Does this mean that our feelings become desensitized?

I wonder. Do you mean that, for instance, after a time love cools down, or grief loses its sting? Or that when one has loved often, or grieved often, the latest times are not so sharp? I'm not sure this is true. Will think about it a while.
It’s a more physiological story than your thought because this phrase was from a psychiatrist.
He says like,
The part in brain that controls emotion (frontal cortex) is known to start aging earlier than the other parts.
And, as a result, the parson starts having difficulty in controlling emotions, and also starts losing initiative and motivation.
(from Amazon's book description of WADA Hideki's "Aging starts from emotion")
...
It was a new knowledge to me.
(Oh, while I was translating the description, I thought "emotions" fits more properly than "feelings," so I changed the word.)
