Can you be friends with someone you once had romantic feelings for?

Dear Anna,

My boyfriend (26M) is still friends with a woman (25F) he had feelings for a few years ago. They never dated or had any physical relationship, and he insists those feelings are long gone. I asked him to unfollow her on social media because I believe in cutting ties with past romantic interests. This is a personal boundary for me, and I expect the same from my partner. If he disagrees, I know there are others out there who would respect my boundary.
