It sounds like he's doing the best he can, in his situation and he is trying to relieve you of the responsibility of having to "buy" him a gift. If you aren't as creative and artsy as he, and would prefer to buy him a gift (or not) then just do as you see fit. I think he's a great guy from your description and I'd hate to see something as trivial as this screw up your relationship.
IIN that my boyfriend likes to give presents "from the heart"?
