Sherry, that's a hard one. I suppose it depends on what you want to talk about. When you've had a D&M (deep and meaningful) with him in the past, what has his reaction been? Did you feel heard? Understood? Did he validate your feelings, did he ignore them, did he throw them back in your face? What are you hoping to gain from the experience? My ex last night told me to talk to him. He said, smiling "Come on, come and talk to me about what's going on with your bleeding heart". I said to him I wasn't in the mood and at other times I've told him that I'm not going to answer his questions or talk to him about how I'm feeling because he throws it back in my face. Whatever the case is, if it makes you feel better to do so, then speak to him. If you can already see/sense he will reject/invalidate your feelings which will make you feel worse, think about whether you want to put yourself through that.
