I (F24) feel bad about my bf (M26) initiating sex but I am in pain. How do I stop feeling guilty?

My boyfriend and I were together for the last 3 nights and we didn’t have sex at all. I am in pain (I have a bladder infection) and I got a root canal yesterday. I was just in so much pain and discomfort, I couldn’t do much. My bf understands this, but we’ve had talks before of how he doesn’t initiate sometimes because he doesn’t like getting rejected and it made me kinda feel bad. How do I stop feeling guilty?
