I had already planned to tell H when he comes by next week that I understand his concerns about coming to the party and while I wish he would participate the choice is 100% up him and walk away. I don't want him to feel any pressure from me.....
You already asked him so asking him again would be nothing but pressure. Do you not see that?
Good point.
I'll still hand him the invite with the rest of the stuff and if I say anything at all it will be that I understand and accept how he feels.
And, then not another word. The party will be great with or without him.
