Why do sterile flowers stay in bloom longer than fertilized ones?

The whole purpose in life for a flower's petals is to attract a pollinator or pollen.Once the pollen has fertilized the flower they are no longer needed and therefore drop off.Sterile flowers do not get fertilized and so that mechanism is not triggered so easily.
