Did you tell him about it in a distraught manner, or whiny? Or did you tell him just as a conversation, measured and not too emotional?
Because from what you say it sounds like it was the last one - and his reaction was awful if that was the case. It's called sharing, and sometimes it's rotten news, not just all fluffy bunnies. To get mad at you, then ignore you, to turn off his phone is immature and really not very good boyfriend material.
Had he had issues with what you said, he should've said so instead of punish you - it doesn't sound like he was upset with your friends as he wasn't supportive, and he ignore you. You, not your friend.
And by the way, I think what you were told was quite hurtful, I do not know what your friend had to gain by saying that to you and I think telling your fella this was perfectly acceptable. Sounds like he has a problem, not you. Sorry to be so blunt.
