he does care about you. Its always gonna be hard for people to get over their exes, but they he does care. It will probably take a while for him to get over his ex, but he is willing to move on and focus it all on you because you are his main focus right now. You just have to trust and know that. I hope this helped. goodluck!

As you get older, it becomes less and less likely that you will be your partner's 'first'. There will have been others before you, maybe even serious relationships.
This requires communication, trust and respect. You need to communicate with your partner, and them with you, about your feelings and your past experiences. You have to trust that your partner is being honest with you about thier feelings, and you need to respect thier opinion and beliefs about themselves.
If you can't do that, then you either need to only date people where you are thier 'first' or, you need to get some counseling to learn those skills and work on your insecurities.
Accepting that you aren't the only person who ever walked into your partners life is part of being in a mature relationship. It's not about 'sharing' them with the past, it's about respecting them enough as a human being to recongize they have a past and are entitled to all the relationships and feelings that it includes. If you can't manage that with this guy, then you should end it, and find someone you can trust.
