Today, I was stuck home with a cold when my boyfriend's best friend sent me a text saying, "You doing alright?" I replied, thinking he was talking about my health. He replied, "I'm surprised you're taking the breakup so well." What breakup? Mine. He was ten minutes too soon. FML

Today, I got the flu. Feeling really sick and depressed, I called my boyfriend to get some comfort. When he didn't answer his phone, I called his house, only to hear his mother telling me, "He was so sad that you guys broke up." I didn't know. FML
Today, I came home sick. After a while I received a text message. I thought it was a sweet "How are you baby?" from my boyfriend. It wasn't. He sent: "Hey, I'm going to work now. Please do not disturb. Thank you!" FML
Today, I received a text from my boyfriend breaking up with me. Not only was this a bit cowardly but he'd also sent it in a reply to our last interaction on our phones, a group chat with some of our friends, who started commenting with sad face emojis before I had even had the chance to see it. FML
Today, I woke up to a text from my boyfriend that said, "Dude, I think she knows I'm going to break up with her." FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years sent me a text message saying, "Don't worry I'm gonna break up with her soon. Love you." FML
Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I had only been dating him for about a month. Thinking he wouldn't take it very hard, I invited him over so I could tell him in person. Little did I know he was going to start crying on my couch and not leave for 5 hours. FML
Today, my boyfriend told his best friend to text my sister telling her to tell me that he was breaking up with me. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, by text, while we were in the same room. FML
Today, I woke up feeling awful, having caught the same illness my boyfriend had last night. When he was sick, I skipped my friend's baby shower to take care of him. Now that I'm sick, he goes to a friend's place, says to call if I need him, then turns his phone off. Seriously. FML
Today, my boyfriend called me to break up with me. Immediately after we hung up, I started crying hysterically. I thought I dialed my best friend, and as soon as the line picked up, I yelled, "That motherfucker broke up with me!" My now ex-boyfriend replied, "Yeah, I know I did." FML

I'd be Pissed that he told his friend before you. I understand asking friend for advice and all but a good guy would let you be the first to know.

He probably talked with his friend about it, and told the friend why and all those things. It's not weird that the friend knew before her, that happens a lot.

if he's checking up if you're ok he cares for you which is sweet, but maybe he wants more than a friendship. Maybe the start of something new? Ehh best of luck!

First kick your ex's ass for doing that to you in a time of need. Second try dating his best friend. He seems to care a lot more than your previous bf did.

What time of need? She had a cold. Being stuck at home because of a cold is just being whiny about it. I have had so much bad colds, but I always go to school and work.

even if the friend is just being thoughtful, he may just want in her pants. but if I were the op, I'd do it!, just to spite the ex.

Sounds like his best friend is a better guy, but still avoid that situation as well...
