He is manipulative and constantly makes me cry.

In addition to asking for money, Annie Lane points out to today's reader the multiple red flags that should tell her that her online "boyfriend" is nothing more than a scammer.

He wants me to send him money before we meet, but because I can’t -- I just don’t have the funds he’s asked for -- he has not spoken to me for nearly three weeks now. He sulks and, in general, behaves like a child. The conflict began when she announced her wedding date. I immediately asked if my ex and his new wife would be invited, which upset her as she felt I should have congratulated her first. We argued over this and other prior moments where I felt she had been unfairly aggressive .

Her wedding took place last month , and I recently discovered she friended my ex’s new wife on Instagram, which has left me furious. Annie, who is in the wrong here? What am I missing? Should I be upset by her connection with that woman? I still love her, but I’m worried the friendship has run its course. I’m so lost. Please advise. -- Lost, Loving FriendIt isn’t about who’s “right” or “wrong.
