It may be hard to let get over the past, if you have not resolved the feelings that you have about the past and you have carried them into the present. I trust that when your boyfriends says that he loves you, he is also backing those words up with actions that communicate the same thing. If there is a discrepancy, it would be very difficult to trust those words. Have you explored with him, what love looks like to you versus how it looks to him to see if you guys are on the same page? Perhaps you can continue to have meaningful conversations to get to know each other in even more meaningful ways and on a deeper level. You certainly want someone who can come along side of you emotionally, but you also need to work on bringing your best self to the relationship. Couples or individual therapy may be something that you may want to consider.
