There is no "you might want to let go of the past", there is YOU MUST LET GO of the past.
You've been saying all along you had a very good relationship but... you got here, so obviously something wasnt so fantastic and you had enough time to figure out where you both went wrong. Try to avoid mistakes of the past and even though you feel so "comfortable" with each other, at this point treat this as a new R and you will lead him to do the same. Flowers may then follow... K
