writes: My boyfriend just broke up with me about a week ago. Should I delete him off facebook? Should I take him out of my life? He says one day he wants to be friends, but all I see is him wanting to be around other girls. He doesn't have a lot of friends and wants to stay friends with me one day. Should I just get rid of him or work towards keeping him in my life?

But if it is very painful for you, and upsetting you to see him around other girls, then it might be best to cut contact with him for your own sake. You said he doesn't have many friends, so is that a reason you are considering remaining friends with him? I can understand that, but you have to think of yourself, and do what is best for you. So if you need time and space to heal and move on from what has happened, then I think it is perfectly okay to delete him as a friend on Facebook, and it is also okay to avoid any other type of contact with him. Hope this helps. x

Absolutely, you now deserve the chance to look to the future...one without him in it. Go find the man where the last thing he would want to do is break up! :-)

Yes, you should cut contact. A lot of people try to be friends with ex's, and it co rarely works out. Why torture yourself, when you can just cut contact and move on. That really is the best thing to do.
