Female led relationships discussion

I find myself in a spot where my caged partner developed a bladder infection. Being generous, I let him out early since he was uncomfortable; he happily accepted and enjoyed it. I’ve reset the count now, but bound4blueballs feels shortchanged because his release wasn’t quite how or when he wanted. He’s acting as the top while in submission, making me feel guilty about my choice. How would other keyholders handle this?
