Hello Anon
Thank you for writing and I am sorry you are ill and dealing with emotional fall-out as well.
Your boyfriend may have fallen out of love with you with or without an illness - who can tell? If it's due to your illness, then that is unfortunate.
Your boyfriend may still love you as a friend - I am sure he does - but as a lover and romantic partner, that time may have passed. This happens to many relationships. It is not your fault. It may not even be his fault - the heart wants what the heart wants (and vice versa).
Him having sex with others won't do anything to keep him; he will eventually fall in love and the woman he meets is not going to be ok with him going home to you as his "friend".
It's never easy to let a relationship go but break ups happen all the time and people do recover. Who knows, you may both find someone new and you can remain friends.
I wish you the best and hope you recover well from your illness.
Best,
Susan
