sorry for the late reply. all i can say to that is follow your heart. just because he was searching for his ex doesnt mean hes going to leave you for her. yes he might still love her. what people forget is that when people love someone and break up, that love will never fully go, it cant be turned on and off like a light switch.
i still love my ex from 2 years ago but i've still moved on and had some good times and even found love again but i still find myself looking for my ex online. more out of curiosity than anything. i like to see how shes doing etc. but i'd never ever get back with her.

Be direct and tell him what you want but be prepared that he might not give you what you want - thats your cue to move on. Goodluck and just remember you deserve better.

Well its not you ok.
i'm just going by my own experience here. but i'm really insecure and an ex of mine tried really hard to ease my mind. she did eventually get through before leaving me. truth is its hard to get over these things and all you can really do now is prove that you mean what you say, which can only take time.
sorry i couldn't be more help.

erm...i'm not entirely sure what your question is...
not too sure whats goin on with you two either. it does sound like he's insecure as well, and like me, girls have broken his heart on more than 1 occasion and always through unforeseen circumstances. just try to reassure him that you wont leave him, no matter what happens. and mean it. hopefully he should open up more.
