It was so long ago, but...

[LastLove]

Maybe my case is a little unique, maybe not. My boyfriend did a LONG stretch in prison. When he went in over 13 years ago he'd been in a relationship with his first love, whom he'd been with for a few years by that point. She rarely wrote him during that time. Now that he's out (he's been out for a little over a year, and we've been together for 8 months) suddenly she wants to call and text him. She texted him last week and said that she wanted him to know that over those years she still thought about him and loved him. She also invited him to come see HER boyfriend's band play locally. He feels that if she'd loved him so much she would've written much more often. He didn't text back, but I did telling her to get over him, because he's moved on. They've spoken on the phone before while he and I have been together. He's truly a nice guy (too nice sometimes). He doesn't want to hurt her feelings, but in the process of not trying to hurt hers, he's hurting mine. Is she still in love with him? Do I need to be cautious of her? Or am I overreacting by "staking my claim"? Or was it okay for me to tell her that I don't want her contacting him anymore? He and I have a wonderful relationship. His past mistakes don't define him, he's an upright guy who paid his debt to society. I plan on keeping him without interference!
