I live with my husband of almost 5yrs. The last 2yr. With no sex, He had a Heart Attack open heart. Almost a year now. So I didn’t push the issue now he’s changed dramatically. I think he cheating on me. He says it’s over. I feel so empty and depressed because i do love him. I don’t know what to do

Hi

Welcome to the community.

The only thing I can think of is counseling. I'm not sure if that's something you see as an option.

I wish you the best. We are here to support you

Not married, never been. From what I gather from friends' married life a good marriage councillor will be able to mediate the situation and help you both communicate any issues more clearly to each other so they can be resolved. It's not easy tho, nor fun, so I wish you good luck.

I doubt your husband is cheating, what he has gone through can affect his libido greatly, and honestly going without sex is no big deal unless its what you base marriage on. I went many years without sex due to my partners illness and i got used to it and absolutely valued sharing our life even without sex, sadly he died and i have no wish to embark on another relationship. Sex is not everything but stability and respect is.

I'm assuming by 'open heart ' you meant open heart surgery after his heart attack ? He has been through a major event, medically, and recovery can take a long time , affecting many aspects of our lives .
