Six Questions on a Best Friend's Breakup. (Guy advice, please)?

So. Two days ago, my best friend Jenna was dumped by her boyfriend. Over FACEBOOK. He didn't state a valid reason, just wrote, "I think we should start seeing other people," and logged off. Everyone, EVERYONE, was under the impression that they were in love. They were go in' strong for three and a half years, but now it's over. And Jenna didn't come to school today. She's not answering her phone. I haven't been able to speak to her since I left her house that night.
1) Was it cowardly of him to do it over FB or was he trying to be more gentle?
2) What could I do to get Jenna's mind off of Scott?
3) Would you have ANY idea why he dumped her? At all? Any guesses?
4) Would you have dumped her?
5) Have you ever dumped a girl over FB?
6) Is he just a jerk?

Thank you all!
-AZ, a concerned friend.

You never know why people break up, really, unless you are one of them doing it. Have you broken up with someone, that will give you some ideas why. It is not polite and impersonal to do it on FB. He is just not man enough to tell her in real life. This should be done in person. I think even the telephone is a cop out. All you can do is get in touch with her, and see what happens. If she wants to talk about it, let her get it all out. You can't get her mind off of it for a while. If she loved him, she could be screwed up for years, juts be there for her. He mentioned he and her should see other people, so that's pointing towards something he might already be doing. Hell no. Only a sissy would dump a girl on FB. He just sounds like he likes someone else and knows that she really loved him, and he doesn't want to deal with the emotional out poor that comes after a solid dump.

Tell ya the truth it was just lame way to say later. But it was also a power trip for him. He wanted to do it first and did it publicly. So she now feels really bad and he feels like hey i didn't get dump she did. Tha Ti's what cowards do.

I have seen people get fired through a text message so people are using the digit devices to get their message out and not caring if it is rude or not.

Sorry to hear this.,

Good Luck
