Tell me, am I too cruel?

Nope. Just tell him that you understand about relationships being too stressful, and dealing with him is too stressful for
you, so go away and stay that way.
He's not the problem. If I were in your position, my next step would be considering why I got involved with him in the first place, and how to avoid
repeating that sort of mistake.
I've been lucky: when my previous serious relationships came apart, circumstances were such that we stopped moving in the same circles. It meant neither of us had to deal with the other while things were all bloody strips and sharp edges, which was just as well for all concerned. (And they were very different personalities, so the only mistake in common was picking an unsuitable long term partner.)
Even odder, none of them are on Facebook that I can tell. The only exception is the one I
didn't get over.
