Me [23F] with my boyfriend [29M] 4 1/2 year LDR, urgent questions at hand - is he reasonable or am I?

For one, I just want to know if it's reasonable for him to demand that I delete the friend who told me the truth. He says he can't be with me anymore, if I'm going to keep that guy around. Said guy never did me wrong either. I said I won't delete him 3 times or so, then he rants that I don't care about his feelings, that I'm only keeping him as a friend to punish him (boyfriend), that he's trying to hard but I'm making his improving difficult.

I'm stressed out from having to communicate this way. I can deal with a lot, but I don't know when I should put the foot down and say "Nope, no more" / i.e. block back and wait x amount of days or something? I don't know what the best thing to do is. Right now I have him blocked for my own wellbeing, deactivated facebook and what not, just because I needed a day with no anxiety and no "You're still friends with guy. I'm gonna go to jail soon" etc...

Why does he treat me like this, when he can say that he loves me and wants to be with me, but not as long as "this and that"? He doesn't show love before he gets things his way.. I don't get it, does he even love me then? I think what he's asking right now is unreasonable, and a bad reason to withhold love if there is any.
