Hi, we have been dating for 2 years. we love each other and we live together. he's a single father. he's defensive of his ex (well, that's what i reckon) and when i refer his ex girlfriend as an ''ex'' he says he doesn't think of her as his ''ex'' he says, she's the mother of his child and i say but she's still your ex because they broke up long time ago. so, guys my question is, is he still loves his ex or what is it? thank you all.

Now as far as "loving" her this meaning many vary to basically loving her as a person, a mother to his child and loving her in a way where she gave him that child. This doesn't mean he has strong feelings towards her in a romantic way nor does he want to be with her.
A child is a very sensitive subject for many people but it gets even intense when someone shows signs of jealousy towards the ex. The jealous is more offensive as they are the other parent of the child. Meaning, If you insist she is an ex, While you may have a valid point in your statement he sees her as the mother of his child.
As I'm sure you understand that his child will always come first, His ex will not come before you unless it is regarding his child being in danger. Remember, YOU are his girlfriend not his ex. Like I've always said an ex is an EX-ample of what we've done wrong. ;) [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
