Quick update. I asked my H whether he would be around on his birthday so I could drop off his present---decided to give him the present after all. He said he wouldn't be but accepted the alternative; to meet up where he works. I asked if he preferred going to lunch or just meeting up for a minute' to give him the present. He chose lunch. So we'll see how that goes. I'll leave the agreement convo for after his bday. Part of me wants to see him, and another part dreads it... it's weird.
