Dumb question but i don't know whether to unfriend him on fb, as we want to stay in contact?

Its a tough one but explain to him that you are still friends and will keep in touch but you need space to move on/clear your head and its hard to do that when you see him every day on FB. Just be honest and tell him when the times come and you are comfortable enough, you will add him again. If he is a decent guy and respects you he will understand.

When my GF of 2years finished with me i had to delete her cos it was very painful for me and i figured months later if i saw her pics of her with other guys it would destroy me. That was about 5 years ago and im with a girl who i totally love but over the past 5 years ive added and deleted her many times.

You must follow your heart and if that means removing him for a while then you go girl, im sure if he is reasonable and cares about your feelings then im certain he will understand....
