I think childish/immature is the right way to describe why this trope rubs me so wrong in general. Especially because if you want to achieve the same "my OTP is the best, most special love" effect, IMO it's a lot more realistic (and less creepy of the character) for them to be like, "Yes, I loved X, but my love for you is different/stronger/more full of lust/more likely to last the rest of my life/whatever else applies." Because every love IS different, and, depending on the situation a lot of shippers will probably agree that the OTP love is the most soul-matey or whatever else. And that's fine. That happens. People find the one person they love THE MOST, or want to spend their life with for whatever other reason. But that doesn't mean all their past loves are invalid.
