If you don't like potlucks, the solution to your problem is \'don't go to potlucks,\' not \'insist other people don't have them.\'
If this is something you'd truly like to work on, not out of a sense of guilt but because you would enjoy occasionally reciprocating, there are a wealth of resources out there for the enthusiastic amateur (you are far from the only would-be blow-jobber whose spirit is willing but gag reflex is weak). You have more options than \'no blow jobs, ever\' and \'regular whole-hog sessions to completion that result in vomiting.\'
As long as you don't think he's just pretending not to mind for your sake, it sounds like he has truly accepted that blow jobs are too difficult and painful for you to perform, and he's still very satisfied with your sex life. Take him at his word.
Reciprocating oral sex is, in general, a very good idea!

You can care very much about someone without being capable of becoming their primary caregiver in the event of their parents' untimely death.
Addicts sometimes have a penchant for becoming the center of attention at other people's celebrations.
You who have suffered so much do not want to be with the kind of person who makes \'black widow\' jokes to deal with an uncomfortable, painful moment. You should be with a person capable of great compassion and understanding.
