He has already told me that he loves me and I, him though we aren't really an official couple yet - we talked about this. I'm worrying now about his ex. Hes only been with one girl before me... so I'm dealing with a first love here. There were together pretty long and her family loves him!!! They keep in touch regularly until this day and now, her family wants him to go over because they miss him!I am feeling incredibly insecure and jealous!!! I don't know what to tell him... I don't feel like I have the right to stop him or if I even think of trying.. what should I do?

i think maybe you should go with him to the ex's parents' :)
seriously, i believe you can trust that he does love you. but he needs to demonstrate your importance in his life. perhaps u could try getting to know the ex, if they are still friends. if he's not willing to show the world he loves you, i'd be asking why.
good luck, i hope you work things out. ain't new love grand?!

They're story basically is she broke it off with him, but in the end, she ended up going after him again but he wanted it over already.
As for me introducing him to my parents, we arent even together yet... wouldn't that making him meet my parents be a little too soon?

It says a lot about him that the parents like him so much. Maybe you could introduce him to yours.
