I think it depends on the person and how heavily they use.
For me, "losing the magic" was the slow realisation that what I was taking was only a drug, not a gateway to other people or the universe or my inner self. I realised that me sitting around taking e with my friends wasn't changing anything. We weren't finding out any more about ourselves or each other or our relationships anymore. E failed to wipe out all problems.
Basically, I stopped believing in e. I could still get high and have a good time, but that magical feeling wasn't there. The newness has worn off and I've stopped expecting great things from it.
Oh yeah, I was one of the lucky ones, it took me about four or five years of occasional use to lose the magic. Most people I know lost it alot sooner.
